I use what's up gold. It allows to monitor sysstems for running services.In case the service is down - it can alert in many ways.
The software isn't free though.

Hello Fadia,

maybe Big Brother will do what you need. See

If you're talking ProLiant, Integrity or HP9000 servers, don't forget about HP Systems Insight Manager. Can be hosted on Windows or Linux (IA32) or HP-UX (PA and IPF) and can monitor any combination. It even provides easy access to HP-UX SAM functions.

How about OpenView Oparation for Windows?

Consider nagios which is the reworked netsaint.
Use the web interface from Windows. It provides agents for your servers and allows fine grained control over who gets notified how.

Also consider mon which is a lighter weihght tool similar to netsaint. It is perl based and might run under window. It also offers web based access to its status monitors.
