Download Ad-Aware and scan your computer, I see the same problem everyday and its mostly caused by unwanted programs running in the background consuming your bandwidth:

Good luck,

Give us more details for your Internet connection and router(s)/firewall(s) that you use.
Try to reset them and see whether the problem persists.

I've tried spy-ware and adware programs, there is nothing on my system, that has been detected.

Programs used:
-Ad-aware
-Bazooka
-spybot
-hijackthis
-spywareguard

I connect to the net using broadband, I came connected through a hub, to a switch, which it then connected to a router.

OS: Windows XP + SP2
ISP: Wanadoo

This problem has only just started to occur over the last few days, about a week after installing SP2?
