n0exit: Talked to support yesterday and he suggested a factory reset fo my modem. It did the trick and so far have noticed significantly reduced usage. So it does appear to be a DNS exploit, which until a few days ago I had never even heard of. Any tips on how to protect against this in the future? Should I change my modem? Thanks for all you help guys.
n0exit: Also, just checked, my modem's internet light flashes, indicating that there is some network activity but no devices are connected as wifi is disabled and no devices are connected via ethernet. I had a look to see if the mysky was playing up so I unplugged it to see if that had any effect but none, modem still showed internet usage without any devices connected. Tried with a second D-link DSL-302G same thing. I am currently using a linksys wag200g. Also, had my line repaired by chorus around 2 weeks ago, but problem shows up in april, may and june billing periods.
