Firewall software lists program trying to access internet and gives you control over which programs are allowed and which are not. There are plenty of free and good firewall programs such as ZoneAlarm Personal and Kerio Personal Firewall. To keep count of internet usage, you can download bandwidth monitoring software such as Magitime...
