It's was written in VB.
It was going to run as a scheduled event using the timer to check the websites every hour.
I can't find the actual vb project at the moment, but here is an example vb script that I used.
Basically, using the IE control, u can write a full system around this simple vb script.
I will keep looking, I have hundreds of projects scattered over my pc, I am sure it will turn up.

There is an article in PC Pro this month on setting up nagios, so it may be worth giving that a go.

That's because it is in the May issue just out - page 218.

If you want a basic site uptime monitor then google for host-tracker.com.
It's a free service that you can monitor as many sites as you want from the one account, and you can also set the refresh interval to be as little as 1 minute. It's free and they send you daily and weekly reports. (i assume they do monthly ones too, but i've only been using it for a couple of weeks.)

Having tested (and paid for) hybodus for around 10 days it does seem to produce a few false alarms, which I guess other monitoring software does too, but it may be worth trialling it first (especially if your servers are further away from the monitoring box).
We monitor all our servers with a remote hybodus installation and have found that it does seem to produce these false alarms quite regularly which is less than ideal.
Anyone else experiencing these problems with other monitoring software out there?
Can't you tweak hybodus (I've never even heard of it) to have soft fail states where no alerts are generated until the service fails a test x times?
Nagios by default won't generate an alarm until a test fails three (or four, I forget) times.

Hello, Companies Act 2006. Because looking information up at Companies House is very very difficult indeed (especially as they think the Internet closes at night), and this post could possibly be construed as a business communication, I am legally required to furnish you with the following information: Low Cost Host Ltd - Reg# 5172812, VAT# GB 842 9750 02 Correspondence address PO Box 11, Brighouse, W Yorks, HD6 1LQ Registered address c/o Allan P Naylor Accountant, 8 King Cross St, Halifax, W Yorks, HX1 2SH Inside leg measurement 31in (or 78.74cm) Favourite colour Blue Attitude towards ridiculous legislation Incredulous
Please excuse me for bringing up an old thread but it hought it would be better than creating a new one.
Do any of the mentioned free monitoring programs provde a php page or something showing the status of each service such as apache etc.
I am looking for a monitoring program and one to output server status so i can put this on my site.
