IIS Web Service Monitoring

Does anyone know of a (prefreably free) untility that can monitor the web service and send out an email if it falls over ?

Thanks in advance
Ian.

Well just try to connect to the server on port 80 (or whatever HTTP port you're using).

If the connection is accepted, all is well.
If the connection is not accepted, all is not well.
You would then use MAPI, or have the app do the SMTP commands manually to send an email.

If you're running NT (or probably 2000) and if you have the right permissions (Adminstrator, etc), you can use Performance Monitor to monitor tons of info about IIS in real time.
