      Obviously, if yuo're using ASP.NET, and you want this to happen in something resembling real time, you need to have an ajax callback every second or so, or you need to write a control you embed in your web page. If you just want to see it on postback, then the only question that needs to be answered is, what defines 'online', and how do you detect it ? GMail doesn't detect that people are online, it detects that they have gmail open. If you want to just detect that someone is on the web, regardless of using any program or website, and they don't have a static IP, then you're out of luck.
