I had been monitoring my ping by doing "ping <a href="http://www.example.net" rel="nofollow">www.example.net</a> -t" in the command box, but when I started doing it almost daily I figured I should find a way to automate it instead of typing every time. (Of course, it's probably better if you have a good ping app, but this works and it's easy.)<br><br>Also, the site I was pinging was not <a href="http://example.net" rel="nofollow">example.net</a>.
