Incorrect NNTP Usage Shown - "View My Usage"

I know there are issues with 'View My Usage' not showing data at all.
However mine shows 4 gigabyte downloaded yesterday via Usenet (NNTP). This, I feel, is incorrect as the usage/bandwidth monitor on my computer (and downloaded file size) is no more than 750 megabytes.
Is this related to the 'View my Usage' problems or with issues yesterday with THN-AG3?

Follow up that may be of help.
The only major download yesterday (29/09/07) was my STEAM client updating some of the 'Orange Box' files (Halflife2, Episode 1, Team Fortress 2 Beta) Undecided

Strange.
I haven't seen any other references to incorrect usage.
Would you mind raising a ticket so that I can pass it to Networks for you?

Re: Incorrect NNTP Usage Shown - "View My Usage"

Thanks for the reply James, it appears to be showing correctly now!
To clarify, the total usage was correct it's just the protocol that was incorrect:

  • *Just over 3 gigabyte was STEAM downloading Team Fortress 2 and Episode one - I purchased the Orange Box from STEAM on Saturday.


  • *The rest (around 750 megabyte) was for NNTP.


'View My Usage' was showing 4 gigabyte downloaded over NNTP, it's now correctly showing around 3 gigabyte as 'Gaming' (Steam client?)

Yeah, I believe that there was a problem with VMBU which has since been resolved.
