I'm using one of the Mabry controls for some FTP stuff, but before firing the Connect method for that control, is there someway I can quickly test for an active internet connection? (The control has a timeout setting on it, etc. but it acts a bit squirrelly when there is no connection present.)

ALL of the end users are connected to a T1 or ISDN (at the least) but I assume there will be times when their connection is down. Is there an API call or something else I can use to check for the connection? (Especially something that will give me a quick T or F, regardless of that user's specific connection type.)

Thanks in advance,
