Hi,
I need to accomplish a project and the main point is: Scan about 100 URLs within a few (this means about 5-6) minutes and store the results in a file.
I don't need to download the contents of the URLs ! I just need to see if that URL is right & active or I receive "HTTP/1.1 404 Object Not Found" message.
I need this programme to be on Internet so the operators can run it anytime (and from anywhere (!) )during day and refresh their data about URLs...
When I use a commercial and complex component like ASPHttp to check for an URL IT TAKES 3-4 minutes (!) FOR ONLY 5-6 URLS !!! And my programme needs to check about 100 URLS !!!
Can you help me to find a much faster and simpler component or method?
Thanks in advance.

The easiest way is too actually use a webbrowser but make it only download somepart of the file and if it notices that the TITLE bar text is different it reports back that the URL exists!
Please write back if you need more help!

Well, using the Internet Explorer itself sounds a very "cool" idea.
The problem is that: How can I achieve this?
I mean is it possible to invoke the Explorer inside an ASP script (on in VB component) and then pass an URL to it, then check for its title bar if it changes I mean and then continue the operation for other URLs?
If that is possible, then HOW?
I mean I have no idea of invoking the MS Internet Explorer within an ASP or a Visual Basic component and check the data in its title bar?
Can you help?
