That code assumes that you have WMI installed on the computer. WMI is not installed by default on Windows 98, so that code would fail on Windows98.
Try this

VB Code:

Public Shared Function GotInternet() As Boolean
        Dim req As HttpWebRequest
        Dim res As HttpWebResponse
        Try
            req = CType(WebRequest.Create("http://www.devbuzz.com"), HttpWebRequest)
            res = CType(req.GetResponse(), HttpWebResponse)
            req.Abort()
            If res.StatusCode = HttpStatusCode.OK Then
                GotInternet = True
            End If
        Catch weberrt As WebException
            GotInternet = False
        Catch except As Exception
            GotInternet = False
        End Try
End Function
