I'm using the evaluation version and so far, iNet Protector has been the best program I've tested. Before I purchase, I'd like to figure out a couple of things.
1) How do I check how much time I've used from my daily quota limit? I do see the update but it's because the program shows it...how do I get it on demand?
2) I'm using both the Schedule and Daily Quota options. While the Schedule function is working according to my preferences, it seems the Daily Quota option isn't providing the correct reflection of my online use. I've been tweaking my allowances in the Daily Quota as I'm balancing access for work and pleasure. Is the Daily Quota counter reset every time I change my limits? For example, if I change from 3 hours to 4, if I have already used 2 hours that day, it seems like the counter resets to 4 hours after I change my limits.
From the evalution so far, my favorite features are the ones that allow access so I can still listen to music via allowable programs (Last.fm and Pandora) and remote desktop so I can work without having all the time online charged against my quota. This actually encourages me to lower my limits because I'm not afraid of being cut off from work or music. My weakness are the browsers...
Thanks.
