Hi, I have large files on my site (Game Mods of upto 500mb)
I seem to be going through ridiculous amounts of bandwidth which i don't mind but 15gig per week is off the wall

My question is there a way to track the downloads to see which are being leeched or abused?

I understand it shows how many hits, but to show which was downloaded last? or times of DL

Have you tried the options in admin. downloads/configuration?

Code:

http://yoursite.com/admin.php?op=Downloads&file=config&s=3

If you have a stats program like webalyser on your server you will see what IPs are eating bandwidth.

Also worth a look is IP Tracker which will show you the IPs, members and times of visits to your downloads area.

Worth considering is offering alternative downloads mirrors like filefront, I use these for 500mb games patches, free service and reliable.
