    I'm looking for a lightweight TCP & UDP monitor that is similar to the one Online Armor uses in the screen shot below. My requirements are it must give the local, and remote address. It must list the name of the application connected. It also must give the country of origin for the remote address which is the feature that is lacking from almost all the TCP & UDP monitoring utilities I have found. It would be a bonus if it monitors other protocols such as icmp, ftp, etc.., but this is not a requirement. It would also be nice if it gave information about the content of packets being sent, or received if the utility was still light on resources. I think this type of feature could make the utility a little heavy though.

    I already use sysinternals, but it does not give the country of origin for the remote address as far as I know. Will Sysinternals append a country flag, and list the name of the country of origin for each connection?

    NirSoft CurrPorts should do 99% of what you need:
    -http://nirsoft.net/utils/cports.html-
    Scroll down to "The 'Remote IP Country' column" for info on adding that feature
    Also "Integration with IPNetInfo utility" is totally rocking.
    And worth a look:

    -http://nirsoft.net/utils/http_network_sniffer.html-

    Cheers.

    Thank you FOXP2! I will check it out now. I already use some Nirsoft applications. They have so many applications it can be hard to find which one meets the criteria you are looking for.

    NOD 32 flagged it as an unsafe application. I'm going to upload it to VT, and wee what kind of hits I get.

    It got 2 hits. Probably false positives, but hard to be for sure after seeing even Combofix got infected last year.
