A standard way to check this I don't know any. I don't even know if an 
appication can catch events sent by the OS when a network connection 
raises..
I've made an application wich polls the network for a TCP/IP target : 
once at the application load and then on a regular basis. to have it as 
a standard as possible (from my point of view), I'built a service which 
runs on Win32, Win64, Linux x86_64 and WinCE.
It is almost standard for all platforms as it uses Indy sockets and 
potocols on both sides: update server and targets. The only exception is 
the WinCE application wich connects to a local server to check for a new 
version. But all TCP/IP prorocol is coded in one FPC unit and compiled 
using Lazarus in all applications that need it.

Antonio.
