high availability Internet connection

Hello to all!

I have the following problem: I have two Internet connections, one is just for backup and the other one is active. I want when the active one goes "down", the other one to kick in. I thought of HSRP or VRRP but this won`t solve my problem because the link never goes down ... sometimes the ISP network goes down somewhere and only the ISP network is available. I can implement a solution on a variety of routers / PIX firewalls / servers.

Do you have any solutions that you think might work or are you currently using one successfully ? Please let me know
