Post a traceroute to your favorite server.

Are you sure there are no background tasks using your bandwidth? An
upload (like a P2P app) will absolutely kill your ping.

There's a good way to find out. ;-)

My .02 on software firewalls:

I wouldn't run one. Most systems today have a NAT router, either as
part of an IP sharing scheme on their home network or it's built into
their DSL/Cable modem. A NAT router *is* a firewall, and will protect
your machine (if properly configured) from any unsolicited traffic
from the outside world. It won't detect a trojan sending data
*outbound*, but safe computing practices and a little common sense
should prevent that sort of problem. As a simple check for that, I
have my network connection icon sitting in the tray. Any unexplained
communication would be easily spotted by noticing the blinking lights.
