Web monitors

[cool11]

Sometimes I feel lonely in the whole planet.
Explain:
What I want? A simple program, web monitor.
Monitoring sites, using an application. Every time a site changes, it would send me a mail.
I download many(really many) trial programs trying to configuring them.
First step: send a test mail to be sure I can be contacted.
No luck at all!
All these web monitors do not support ssl! That's the problem.
At least this seems to be. And all the web mails I have tried require ssl in the authentication. The web monitors do not, so thats it.

Do you have to suggest me a web monitor program that really works?
I hope somebody in this world (and in this forum) have similar experience so he could tell me which application sends mail without problems and really do the job.

Any help?

Should I post it to 'Web hosting, Dedicated Servers and Reseller Hosting'?
I think there should exist some people who want to monitor sites.
I have problems with my hosting company, I found out that a site of mine was down very often, so I decided to watch the whole activity using a web monitor application.

We talk about web design but what's the point if we cant assure that the sites we make are always online?
Lot of us own sites and we think they are always available to the net community. But they do not!

So, here it comes my request.
