Pivo InI Component  License: Freeware
	INI component reads and writes Windows style INI files. It provides a comprehensive set of functions making INI files a powerful way to store application settings. There are three common ways to store program information on the hard disk: in the Windows registry, in INI files or in XML files. Using XML files is the preferred way to store initialization data in .NET (the registry is getting cluttered which makes it slow and INI files are much less flexible than XML files). However, if you're porting applications from older platforms to .NET, or if your data initialization file structure must be compatible with some other program, sometimes you're forced to use INI files. The Pivo INI component is a fully featured, easy to use implementation and it is written in 100% managed C# code. Author: Pivo Corporation| Date: 30-09-2005 | Size: 232 KB | Download

	Pivo Ping Component  License: Freeware
	Pivo.Ping allows you to effortless enable your applications to send Internet Control Message Protocol (Ping/ICMP) packets in .NET. Programmatically ping a remote server, host, route, or any network device to see if it is up. Pivo.Ping fully supports RFC 792 standard. Pivo.Ping is a server component. It requires the Microsoft .NET runtime in order to function properly. Pivo.Ping is used to programmatically ping hosts on a network. A 'Ping' is a technique for sending an ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) packet(s) to a remote host. If the remote host is up, and supports ICMP, a control message, or packet, will be sent back to the sender. This technique provides a mechanism for feedback about communication problems in a networked environment. Pivo.Ping abstracts this mechanism in an easy to use manner for the programmer. For more information about ICMP, check out the RFC 792 at http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc792.html. Pivo.Ping can only be used programmatically from a .NET environment, including, but not limited to, ASP.NET, winforms, console applications, and web services. Here are two brief examples for using Pivo.Ping from C# and Visual Basic. The following example pings www.pivo.com. [C#] Private void Page_Load (object sender, System.EventArgs e) { if ( Page.IsPostBack ) { Pivo.Ping.Icmp icmp = new Pivo.Ping.Icmp("www.pivo.com"); for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++) { Console.WriteLine(icmp.Ping().TotalMilliseconds); } } }. Pivo.Ping is a low overhead, highly optimized assembly that needs the Microsoft .NET (or equivalent) framework to run. Any system that can support the Microsoft.NET framework will be able to use Pivo.Ping. Pivo.Ping can be used from any environment supported by .NET, which can include winforms, ASP.NET, console applications, components, or web services.

	Pivo SMTP Component  License: Freeware
	Short for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol, a protocol for sending e-mail messages between servers. Most e-mail systems that send mail over the Internet use SMTP to send messages from one server to another; the messages can then be retrieved with an e-mail client using either POP or IMAP. In addition, SMTP is generally used to send messages from a mail client to a mail server. This is why you need to specify both the POP or IMAP server and the SMTP server when you configure your e-mail application. Pivo Smtp Component is one which can be used in web/window application like C#,ASP.NET, VB, smpt component allows your applications or web pages to create and send email messages over SMTP protocol just in a few lines of code. Sends messages as plain text or in the HTML format. Smtp Component can send email to any email address with or without smtp server as parameter. Email can contain any number of attachments, unlimited recipients, cc's and bcc's. Send Email directly from you web page via applications/browsers.
