Ok, here's an improved version that checks for failed pings as well and cleans
up the output. Usage is the same as before. Again, watch for wrapping, there
should be 14 lines.
-------PingResponse.bat-------
@echo off
:top
set PingResponse=PingFailed
for /f "delims=<m=; tokens=5" %%i in ('ping %1 -n 1^|find "Reply"') do set /A
PingResponse=%%i
echo %PingResponse%
if %PingResponse% LSS %2 goto top
if %PingResponse%==PingFailed goto failed
echo blat - -body "Ping response was %PingResponse% milliseconds." -server
mailserver.com -f m...@self.com -subject "Ping was too long" -to m...@self.com
blat - -body "Ping response was %PingResponse% milliseconds." -server
mailserver.com -f m...@self.com -subject "Ping was too long" -to m...@self.com
goto top
:failed
echo blat - -body "Ping failed." -server mailserver.com -f m...@self.com
-subject "Ping failed." -to m...@self.com
blat - -body "Ping failed." -server mailserver.com -f m...@self.com -subject
"Ping failed." -to m...@self.com
goto top

Cheap and dirty, but might do the trick.
Usage is:
PingResponse IP AcceptableTime
For example, PingResponse google.com 10 would repeatedly ping google and if it
was ever over 10 milliseconds, blat will email you. Note that there's only 5
lines so watch wrapping. Also, this will not message you when ping returns a
request time out so if 5 seconds is too short, you modify the ping command in
line 2 with -w to change the timeout.

PingResponse=%%i

blat - -body "Ping response was %PingResponse% milliseconds." -server
mailserver.com -f m...@self.com<mailto:m...@self.com> -subject "Ping was too
long" -to m...@self.com<mailto:m...@self.com>
goto top

Thanks, but it doesn't look like Servers Alive will do what I need.
Essentially, I need a continuous ping:

Reply from 10.10.10.10<http://10.10.10.10>: bytes=32 time=15ms TTL=245
and send an alert to one or more configurable email addresses if time >= x ms
for more than y pings, where x and y would be configurable by me.
