Socket

Hi;

I have an application that connects with a server by using .NET sockets.
When the server goes down my application still wants to connect with the
server and crashes.

What is the best way to check the server is alive ?
I have tried objMySocket.Connected but this always returns True even when
the Server goes down when the application is runnning.
Any Idea ?

Why not implement an exception handler?
