AM-DeadLink v4.6

Checker on 25 Sep 2012

AM-DeadLink detects dead links and duplicates in browser bookmarks and text files. If a bookmark has become unavailable you can verify and delete it permanently. Additionally you can download FavIcons for all your Favorites and Bookmarks.

Stealth: ? Yes
License: Freeware
How to extract: Download the installer and start dlsetup.exe. Choose to install as a portable application in a folder of your choice. Launch deadlink.exe
What's new?
  • Firefox 2.x format re-introduced. It's now possible again to check "bookmark.html" files with old Firefox 2.x and Mozilla format.
  • Firefox: Bookmarks are now read-only and can no longer be changed or deleted within AM-DeadLink. This step was required to avoid conflicts due to changes in the Firefox database. AM-DeadLink can however still be used to open and check Firefox bookmarks for dead links.
  • Delete *.URL files: *.URL files are now deleted to the recycle bin

Now there is version 4.4 available. Double-click the EXE file and select the "portable" install to USB stick.

"Yet another product that has been "improved" to the point where it no longer works." This developer (Aignes) has the aggravating custom of encrypting its executables as well as loading them with questionable interface additions... I think I'll pass.

Xenu's Link Sleuth v1.3.8

Andrew Lee on 12 Feb 2013

Xenu's Link Sleuth checks websites for broken links. Verification is done on "normal" HREF links, as well as images, frames, plug-ins, backgrounds, local image maps, style sheets, scripts, and java applets. It displays a continuously updated list of URLs which you can sort by various criteria. A report can be produced at any time.

What's new? Major improvements:

  • check css @import statements within <STYLE>...</STYLE>
    check url() elements within <STYLE>...</STYLE>
    check url() element within STYLE=
  • parse css files similar to <STYLE>...</STYLE>
Minor improvements:
  • sort "broken page-local links" section in report
  • url property dialog now resizeable
  • mailto with empty rest => "mailto:", not "mailto:@".
  • mailto:name%40host.com => mailto:name@host.com
  • all mailto: URLs of a host with successful DNS lookup are set to "skip type"
  • dito also for previously failed mailto: URLs of that successful looked up host
  • light green color for "mail host ok", which replaces text "skip type" for mailto:
  • renamed "maximum level" to "maximum depth"
  • GraphViz only for "ok" links
Misc:
  • changed link counting method, now in AddUrl
  • clean possible memory leaks when finishing; FreeLibrary() for DNSAPI.DLL
  • changed toolbars slightly, preparations for VS2010
  • for VS2010, expand application class with virtual INI functions because I hate the registry
  • "#" as error (not in public release)
  • DLL security: fully qualified path for LoadLibrary()
Bug fixes:
  • Lower case in check for .gif, .png etc
  • corrected bug in change from 25.5.2010 "set recent URL list to 100 instead of 10"
  • correct bug about CCriticalSection usage for ServerMap and CharsetMap
  • fix for false alert in VS2010 buffer overflow check

I just downloaded this and have run checks on a couple domains, but as soon as it's done checking, the whole program shuts down, so I can't save, export, etc. Anyone know about this?

Doesnt handle proxies well. Only uses default proxy. Should be able to specify proxy in application.

James Randal on 2011-04-20 06:37

Comment above is in relation to its portability. The application functions perfect for its purpose...
