Download and Upload Speed Monitor
One handy software I usually use at home while downloading a lot of stuff is AnalogX NetStat Live.
Sometimes you just got to know how much download speed you are getting and upload speed you are providing.
This is especially when downloading P2P stuff where you have to share some of your bandwidth in order to get from others.
When there is too many upload and downloads at one time, it is good to know what the exact speed for both downloads and uploads.
NetStat Live has a simple UI, which at a glance you already know how much is your download and upload speed and even the total of incoming and outgoing data. Along with it, it will show the number of threads that are active in your PC and the CPU utilization. Just like a summary table that you can quickly see to know about the general condition of your PC. Now that is useful, plus it is free 
But now it seems AnalogX has stopped its software developments. I just went into their website and the latest updates from them is one year ago! This is really unfortunate since AnalogX has produced many nifty little softwares that simply works.
