How did you manage to check the usage? I am asking because when I try to check it after logging in, I reach their E mail site of Data One. In fact I tried several times. Can you please give the URL that you used?

If ur using xp sp2 or win2000 sp4 then i think ur automatic update is on and it is this program which is using the bandwidth. to do this chk Automatic update properties. i may be correct or wrong

DataOne too is a dialup, but over ethernet (pppoe), so the same may be used even now.

I don't think so, but I may be wrong!

also use a good adblocker, popupblocker, flash blocker, etc, to control 'un-required' downloadin.
or use maxthon browser; its got all these download controls.
