You've got two choices I think :
1. Learn Winsock programming and that's NOT easy but might be a good challenge if you want one. See http://www.stardust.com/winsock/ for more information.
2. Have a search around for ActiveX controls that allow you to do this sort of thing. I've done this sort of thing before and used the Dameware control ( http://www.dameware.com ) but theirs isn't the only one.
Hope this helps.
gash25,
I've just started in winsock, only several days...and I've learnt alot about it in this several days, actually enough to do your question (and more) :)
I'd go for Winsock!
