Program to check whether the Computer is shut down/offline

Hi,

I am trying to copy files from one computer to another, the problem I am
facing is that the program chokes when the other computer is not available
(shut down/off the n/w).
is there any way programmatically that i check whether the other computer is
available?

Thanks,
Stephen
