Whichever the internet connection..whichever the ISP..when u upload u also download but only small amts of data..if ur ISP charges for downloads then this miniscule amt of download WILL COUNT IN YOUR DOWNLOAD LIMIT

What you are referring to is the ACKs sent by the other computer that tells your computer it to send some more. You upload, the other computer ACKnowledges it and says yeah i got it right, send some more or oppps i did not get it, pls retransmit. This all happens in the TCP Protocol.
I'm not sure how often this is but i would think if you uploaded 100MB say, the acks downloaded would probably be very small.
In fact i dont think they would be considered as data at all since they are like ping signals sent back.
If you ping a machine for 10 minutes have you uploaded any data ?
