Here is the code in C# (if anyone needs it)

Code:
using System;

using System.Net;

using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace WindowsApplication1

{

    public partial class Form1

    {

        public Form1()

        {

            InitializeComponent();

            //Added to support default instance behavour in C#

            if (_defaultInstance == null)

                _defaultInstance = this;

        }

        #region Default Instance

        private static Form1 _defaultInstance;

        /// <summary>

        /// Added by the VB.Net to C# Converter to support default instance behavour in C#

        /// </summary>

        public static Form1 Default

        {

            get

            {

                if (_defaultInstance == null)

                {

                    _defaultInstance = new Form1();

                    _defaultInstance.FormClosed += DefaultInstanceFormClosed;

                }

                return _defaultInstance;

            }

        }

        private static void DefaultInstanceFormClosed(object sender, FormClosedEventArgs e)

        {

            _defaultInstance = null;

        }

        #endregion

        public void Form1Load(Object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

            if (IsConnectionAvailibe())

                //If there was internet on at the moment the application opened, add statements to enable the application for internet usage.

            {

                Label1.Visible = false;

                TextBox2.Enabled = true;

                TextBox1.Enabled = true;

                Button1.Enabled = true;

                Button2.Enabled = true;

                Button3.Enabled = true;

            }

            else if (IsConnectionAvailibe() == false)

                //If there wasn't internet when the application opened, add statements to disable internet using items to prevent errors.

            {

                Label1.Visible = true;

                TextBox2.Enabled = false;

                TextBox1.Enabled = false;

                Button1.Enabled = false;

                Button2.Enabled = false;

                Button3.Enabled = false;

            }

        }

        public bool IsConnectionAvailibe()

        {

            var objUrl = new Uri("http://www.google.com");

            var objWebRequest = WebRequest.Create(objUrl);

            WebResponse objResp;

            try

            {

                objResp = objWebRequest.GetResponse();

                if (objResp != null) objResp.Close();

                return true;

            }

            catch (Exception)

            {

                return false;

            }

        }

    }

}

Here is the upgraded source to vb 2008 in vb net and C#
Source in vb net & C#

Like people have already said, this could be done much simpler with either a webclient downloading string, or even a ping. But nevertheless this is still working and a nice and handy piece of code ;)
Good job @ OP
