Thanks a lot!
My application will listen the internet at intervals with 15 or 20
minutes.... Is there a sample available for me to look up, explaining
how to construct an app like this?
Thanks!

I have an app that sounds like it does the same thing as you are doing. I
have a anti-v app that updates its virus database over the air. The user
can force an update, or set a auto-update timer. If the timer is on, I set
it to go off at the correct interval. I use an Alarm to do this. One thing
you will have to do is reset the alarm on a system reset. Once you get into
that you will see its not that easy to do. If you have your user set it to
update once a month, and there is a system reset, you will then have to
figure out how much time is left in that month to set the alarm. if you
simply set it for a month again, the user will only get a update if there
was no reset for a full month! Let me know if you need any help with this
subject.
