MyVitalAgent v8.0.1 by Lucent

I recently found a tool from Lucent that provides a lot of information about your Internet connection and transfer rate. One of the best things about this utility is that it is free. Here is what PCWorld writes about this utility.
MyVitalAgent analyzes your dialup, DSL, or cable Internet connection and diagnoses problems along the way. The program monitors each transaction of your Web, e-mail, and DNS applications from your PC to your modem, across the Internet, to your ISP, and back. When there’s a problem, the program isolates it to a specific component of your unique Internet path. Then, you’ll get a detailed prescription text to help you resolve the problem. MyVitalAgent also can provide an Application Report that shows you a high-level overview of how each application has performed over the course of a day, a week, or a month.
