Link checker software

**JoshT** · Jul 13th, 2001, 01:51 PM

Anyone know of a good freeware link verification tool? Something that can scan a whole site if I give it the URL. I'd get Linkbot, but they only have a trial on their site, and the company my company buys software from doesn't seem to have it listed.

Or else I'll write my own when I get around to it...

like something that tells you if all the links are working?

I use a program that is called Xenu Link verifier. works pretty good and give you a report of the bad links with other stuff. I can't remeber where I got it though, try Zdnet downloads

ya it is too big to post here, zipped up it is 200K.
I couldn't find it anymore as the home page is different now but I uploaded it to my webpage so you can get it.

well crap, I don't know why it didn't work, try it again. I fixed it.

**sail3005** · Jul 15th, 2001, 03:21 PM

Thanks for the link. I'll try it out.

I'm tempted to write my own, though. I just need to find the time...
