nmap will also do it using the -sP switch.

Command Promp:
Type Ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xx(IP Address) ENTER
krytonic, I believe the guy has a long list of ips that he is intending to use so simply doing that command over and over would be cumbersome. Whereas a tool that he can simply copy and paste the ip addresses to would be much simpler.
To answer the op question I dont know of any particular tool, I am more partial to writing code when I need to do things. It seems that you have plenty of suggestions already. If you need some perl or c++ code give me a shout and I will toss you something together.
It would take about 10 minutes to script it. I would use VBS. Here is a quick link to an example vbs file that does what you want. http://http://www.microsoft.com/tech....mspx?mfr=true
