Is possible to get notification by e-mail when a site or app pool is down (using IIS7)

Question

I am trying to find out if I can get notified when a site is down, or when a service running under WAS is no longer running.

I don't want to code a monitoring tool, I am sure there must be something out there...

Answer 1

I'm using this

http://tools.pingdom.com/

Beside the cool online tools you have a subscription for monitoring your site.

I found a couple more, haven't used them. These seem totally free while pingdom tools is only free for one site.
