I want an app. to start automatically whenever windows connects to the internet

[Javad]

Hello

I want an application to start automatically whenever the user establishes a
connection to the internet. I think I should do it through windows registry.
Is it possible? (WinXP)

Thank you

Create a batch file, throw your IE to launch, then whatever app you
want to follow it. That's just one way off the top of my head....

Thanks RedForeman
but maybe the user doesn't run IE just after connecting to the internet. I
want my app to run just after the connection is made.

No suggestions?

And the purpose of "connecting to the Internet" is?

I don't know the user's purpose for connecting to internet, maybe checking
his email box, surfing the web, etc, but I want to monitor the amount of his
internet usage. (in bytes and in minutes). I can use a timer to check the
network availability status, but I would prefer not to occupy his CPU while
my prog is not needed.

Thank you

Then you will need to set up for ALL those eventualities, IF you insist
