    Put ping /? in the Command Prompt window to get the functions it offers.

    I should add that the server you are doing it to may recognize it as a bad thing such as a DoS/Denial of Service attack by tying up their bandwidth and block you or your ISP.

    Thanks, I figured it out now. I typed in the command ping -t google.com and it worked.

    Oh, thanks for letting me know about that too.

    You're welcome. If you want to quit press Ctrl + C to stop it then close the window.
