Adam Dicker White HouseI have been using this tool since it was first posted since 1997. [Icon: Xenu with a fedora hat checking a link with his galactic looking glass]Xenu’s Link Sleuth (TM)checks Web sites for broken links. Link verification is done on "normal" links, 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 different criteria. A report can be produced at any time. Additional features:

  • Simple, no-frills user-interface
  • Can re-check broken links (useful for temporary network errors)
  • Simple report format, can also be e-mailed
  • Executable file smaller than 1MB
  • Supports SSL websites ("https:// ")
  • Partial testing of ftp and gopher sites
  • Detects and reports redirected URLs
  • Site Map  

Anyways go here and get it, you will love it and its the fastest tool I have ever seen to find broken links on websites.  Every year I try and remember the name of this tool and pass it on.  So bookmark it yourself! Download from developer Enjoy and please post comments if you find it useful and I will continue to post more great tools.
