Net Watcher in XP Pro

Schumi
Is there a program in XP that will allow me to see who is on my computer over the network? I remember in Win ME and 98 I guess for that matter, there was a program called Net Watcher that allowed me to see who was on my computer and what files they were looking at, and the amount of time they were on etc.

I´m looking for Adaptec ASPI drivers for W2k. The ones I found on the Adaptec site (ASPI32. EXE, version 4. 60) say they cause problems if installed with W2k. Any ideas where to get a W2k compatible Adaptec ASPI layer?.

Microsoft--forced to expose source code...BOO!

Brian Frank
I know I'm not a lover of everything MS does, but the article on the main page is disturbing. Microsoft is being attacked, leaving no stone unturned, by people that feel Gates and Co are screwing everyone.
