Wow and they allow you up to 45 minutes for execution. If that site gets popular expect that to go down... or maybe they'll start charging...

I just tried this dead link checker out and it reported 12 links broken for one of my sites. When I manually check each link only 1 was actually broken. It's not 100% accurate and not sure why.

I would recommend xenu link checker. it is free sits on your desktop, and is the mutts nutts.

It is one of the first things I do when i am considering a new client. It shouws you redirects, old to new page, broken links files etc the lot. even produces a nice html sitemap or you.
