netmeter is a fantastic windows bandwidth monitoring tool. i have been using it for years now. but just the other day it stopped working. i thought that at first it was because i installed vmware and the virtual network interfaces were giving it some problems, but it turns out that it was actually the network interface that the bluetooth drivers i installed for my USB bluetooth receiver as well as the virtual network interfaces made by vmware.

i disabled all of the other interfaces and i’m able to see bandwidth stats again.
