Plusnet: My Broadband Usage: Other?

I am looking at the Plusnet - My Broadband Usage page.
Can anybody tell me what is the definition of 'Other' traffic? I am surprised to see quite so much of Other traffic.
I can guess that it is traffic which doesn't fit into web, email, usenet, ftp, etc. I am wondering what sort of traffic might fit into the Other category, what protocols for example, perhaps NTP?
TIA

It says I've used 34GB of the "Other" out of a total of 123GB so far this month.
This is the biggest contribution to my usage, although "Broadband Phone" @ 26GB is a close second...
I don't believe Skype could gobble 26GB in a fortnight...

You haven't a clue about the nature of the content that I have accessed.

'Twas humour....though you could have stopped after the fourth letter!!
I remember some comedian ( I can't remember who) who said that if porn accounts for 30% of the internet - that's 70% he hasn't seen.
