Hey guys & gals,

Here is my code:

Try

My.Computer.Network.Ping(" http://www.hide-link.com/ ", 5)

Catch ex As Exception

Timer1.Enabled = False

MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString)

Stop

End Try

Here is my error:

System.Net.NetworkInformation.PingException: An exception occurred during a Ping request. ---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: No such host is known

Thanks,

I had tried pinging my site but got the error so I used Microsoft because I knew it was there.

I somehow elimited some zero's in my delay.

I removed the "http://" and everything works great.

Thanks again,
