Ok so for the fun of it I made a program that downloads stuff off the net (as if you couldn't tell by the subject line lol.)

Anywho I found a problem with it that I'm hoping you guys may be able to help me resolve.

I am on dialup and while downloading an online radio show I listen to I got kicked off and then the file I did have saved from the download thus far got deleted because the program was still running and it turned up a blank file I would assume.

Is there anyway to make a loop or some other function to check for internet connectivity so that if the connection gets severed that the program will automatically pause where its at and then resume when it dectects an active connection once again?

THANKS MUCH for any help in advanced!

Code:
Run, rasphone.exe ,, Hide
WinWaitActive, Network Connections
IfWinNotExist, Network Connections, Hang &Up
   MsgBox, Connection seems still active ; as there is no HangUp-Button
WinClose, Network Connections
Weird brain flash.

I guess the resume is the problem. I'm not sure if URLDownloadToFile can do that.
You may need to automate a download manager.

BoBo's idea is a good one (by changing IfWinNotExist to IfWinExist) thus far, but it still doesn't quite work for pausing a download like I need...

Maybe it would help if I put of the code :)...

Code:
#Persistent
#SingleInstance ignore
Process, priority, , Realtime
SetBatchLines -1


InputBox, dsvar, Doofy Downloader Thing, Please Enter an URL in the box: ,,,120

if ErrorLevel <> 0
   ExitApp

else

TrayTip, Doofy Downloader Thing, Currently Downloading %dsvar%, , 1

URLDownloadToFile, %dsvar%, %A_Desktop%\%dsvar%


does that help paint a picture of what I mean? :?
