I found this example but when it comes to:

Resp = WebReq.GetResponse();

It jus freezes my application??

<CODE>
public static bool IsConnected()
{
System.Uri Url = new System.Uri("http://www.microsoft.com");

System.Net.WebRequest WebReq;
System.Net.WebResponse Resp;
WebReq = System.Net.WebRequest.Create(Url);

try
{
Resp = WebReq.GetResponse();
Resp.Close();
WebReq = null;
return true;
}

catch
{
WebReq = null;
return false;
}
}</CODE>

How about setting the TimeOut property on your WebRequest?
