How to batch ping a series of websites?

    I'm creating a tool that will submit articles to over 800 article bank websites.

    The problem is that some are online and some are bankrupt...

    So I would like to know what sites are still online and thought that pinging them would be the way. But one by one!...

    Is there a free tool out there to batch ping websites?

    Thanks

    Well, if you are making a tool to submit to the sites, why not create a module that would send a query to the website, and if no response, flag the website as no long available or manually check it at a later day?
