HttpWatch collects and displays in-depth HTTP information as Internet Explorer downloads web pages and images. It makes it easy to view headers, cookies and other useful information without having to use custom proxies or complex network monitoring tools. And unlike most other logging tools, it can even show the details of requests made using secure SSL channels (where the web site address starts with https:) or HTTP compression.

HttpWatch integrates with Internet Explorer as an Explorer Bar so that you can view HTTP activity as you access websites on the internet or your local network:

The information captured includes:

* URLs being accessed
* HTTP method, e.g. GET, POST, etc...
* Mime type of response, e.g. text/html image/gif
* Time taken to complete a request
* Size of downloaded page, image or file
* HTTP status codes or error codes if the request failed.
* Cookies sent and received
* Headers sent and received
* Parameters sent in a query strings and POSTs
* Network operations required, such as DNS lookup or socket connects
* Whether the content was read from the browser cache or downloaded from the HTTP server
