Main Screen 
A web site link checker that ensures your website visitors have a good experience by making sure that you don't have any broken links.
The website link checker starts at a specified web page and checks it is valid. It then search the page and find all the links it contains to other web pages. The process is then repeated for each of the new web pages found. This is much in the same way Google and other search engines index websites. These sort of programs and commonly called robots (bots), crawlers or spiders.
The software works on Microsoft Windows and is distributed under a Freeware based licence.
This is the first release so please make comments and suggestions to help me develop it in the right direction.
