What program can I use instead of Windows Task Manager's Networking tab?

I have had this problem ever since purchasing a new computer with
Vista pre-installed.

Task Manager's Networking tab does not recognize any data coming in
over the internet. The fields "Bytes Received," "Bytes Received per
Interval" and "Bytes Received Throughput" do not work. The yellow line
that represents the current bandwith utilization stays at zero.

There is no problem with outgoing data. I can track how much I have
uploaded, and upload speed.

Is there a fix or a workaround or a simple program that has the same
functionality as Task Manager's Networking tab?

Many thanks.

Well I don't have any problems with the Task Manager here, but there is also
the 'Reliability and Performance Monitor' which gives an even better break
down of performance related stuff.
