hi
nowadays users are also becoming smarter and demand more. ;)
i saw one application (day-to-day life type) which uses ping ....
guesss
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
games.yahoo.com :D
if you are playing games on yahoo say for eg. pool & if your partner
is not responding ..... you can ping his machine to know if its the
network problem.
it shows ping stats from your machine to games server & from games
server to partner s machine.
but if you wanna opt for simpler option you can invoke ping.exe or
ping binary with exec & capture & display results
regards
