[geeks] keeping track of downloads by firefox

[Lionel Peterson]

You want bandwidth per local application, correct? What about  
monitoring a virtual NIC that is only used by firefox? Or a proxy that  
keeps track of bandwidth? Are you able to route traffic for firefox  
over a dedicated NIC, allowing your switch to track bandwidth?

There maybe more process-specific methods, but you'll need to share  
which OS this is running under...
