Seeing as I have been experiencing a bit of downtime of late (due to the installation of .NET 2.0 on the servers and misconfiguration for co-residing with .NET 1.1) - I decided to write a monitoring tool for Windows.
I am thinking of making it available free of charge in the near future.....
RSS Output for each URL monitored - so you can run it on a desktop and have a RSS reader running elsewhere on your network waiting for alerts.
Its simple but effective. You set the check interval in the XML configuration file along witht the URLS you want moniting and off it goes.
Heres a piccy....
Let me know if you would be interested in a copy and I will set up a download page ASAP.
