This may be a dumb question, but is there a good
free utility which shows and logs which programs or
processes are using network resources, apart from installing
something like zonealarm ?

Which Windows, netstat is builtin to some versions:

"Displays protocol statistics and current TCP/IP network connections.

NETSTAT [-a] [-e] [-n] [-o] [-s] [-p proto] [-r] [interval]

-a Displays all connections and listening ports.
-e Displays Ethernet statistics. This may be combined with
the -s
option.
-n Displays addresses and port numbers in numerical form.
-o Displays the owning process ID associated with each
connection.
-p proto Shows connections for the protocol specified by proto; proto
may be any of: TCP, UDP, TCPv6, or UDPv6. If used with
the -s
option to display per-protocol statistics, proto may be any
of:
IP, IPv6, ICMP, ICMPv6, TCP, TCPv6, UDP, or UDPv6.
-r Displays the routing table.
-s Displays per-protocol statistics. By default, statistics
are
shown for IP, IPv6, ICMP, ICMPv6, TCP, TCPv6, UDP, and
UDPv6;
the -p option may be used to specify a subset of the
default.
interval Redisplays selected statistics, pausing interval seconds
between each display. Press CTRL+C to stop redisplaying
statistics. If omitted, netstat will print the current
configuration information once."

I usually use netstat -o -a

you must be trolling...

you've been posting in here for quite some time now... answering
questions with replies that range from dead on to obscure.. but this
question, coming from a regular in here, a regular that contributes
often, frightens me. are you just regurgitating stuff you read on other
sites and not thinking about it? surely you have by now, enough research
skills to find this information out on your own?

you must be trolling...
