Intermittent Connection Issue - How to Monitor

We have a 3rd party application which uses a connection to a SQL
Server 2005 database. It intermittently loses connnection to the
database and displays an error. The vendor is playing hardball with
resolving the issues. What we would like to do is have a small
application that can run on the machine the client applilcation is
installed on and make connection checks and logs. This way if both
loose connection we can rule out the 3rd party software as being the
issue. However, if theirs looses connection and the monitor
application does not notice anything we can use that information as
leverage for dealing with the vendor.
Is there any such application out there that would do this?
Thanks in advance.Try this tool:

It has a free version that can be use to check every 15 minutes.
Thank you
