    Hi all!

    I am not a very smart programmer (just for hobby) so bear with me!

    I have written a small program with MFC to log my internet connections (date and times which are written into a file). Tha fact is that I have to open and close it manually, after I open and close the connection. What I would like to do is this:

    after I lauch the program, it should monitor possible connections, so that as soon as I connect with Internet it checks the time and when I close the connection it stops it.

    Are there functions to do this?

    Thank you all in advance

    Orlando

    #include <Wininet.h>
    #pragma comment(lib,"wininet.lib")

    if (InternetGetConnectedState(INTERNET_CONNECTION_LAN | INTERNET_CONNECTION_MODEM,0) == FALSE)
    {
    // Don't attempt connection or it will bring up the dialog
    }


    I've tried it before, it works fine!
