Fwd: Software to monitor domains

[Ray Parrish]

Still way over blown, and it requires that I install a web server on my
machine which I don't need or want. All I want is a simple GUI program
that periodically tests to see if http is up on my web sites, that pops
up a message here on my desktop about outages. That ones notification
options included everything but local notification.

Later, Ray Parrish
