ProteMac has announced a new update to its network activity monitor and traffic logger utility for Mac OS X, ProteMac Meter. Version 2.3 adds Local Connections preferences and fixes misc bugs.

ProteMac Meter can offer information such as what was transmitted and where, for a more accurate view of the Internet experience.
