auto server connect?

Is there a mod/program that can auto retry connecting to the server as its annoying when i get the server is full error and i have to keep trying the server is there a way to automaticly connect to the server or at least a way to monitor it so i know when its not buzy.

If you wait a while, you will see a servers Ping and player count.
If it says 32/32, that says it all, eh?

Not sure but think I've seen those numbers change periodically.

Here is a simple way to do it:
in www.flserver.com you can find ping source code. It should report about number of users in commandline format. Every time it gets lower then max initiate fl [ip:[port. simple .cmd file.
done.

Install dot net framework. But since you stuck there: forget it.
