Netmeter 2 doesn't promise to pay your phone bills, or give you free Internet access for that matter, but it is a useful utility for keeping tabs on the phone bill financial situation. It tracks the time you spend on-line and provides an accurate estimate of your telephone bill, service provider charges and total cost. If nothing else, this on-screen reminder will at least lessen the shock of 
your quarterly phone bill. It will also keep logs for individual users online sessions if you need to split the bill.
