Link Checker - local file

[Melissa L. Just]

Netscape 2.0 and above has the ability to check links in the bookmark
file.  If you choose Go to Bookmarks under the Bookmark from the menu,
then select What's New?, Netscape will run through the bookmarked links
(either all of them, or just the ones you have selected) and mark them
with a ? for those it cannot verify and with a glowing looking bookmark
for those that have changed.  Bookmarks that remain unchanged from the
last visit just have the standard bookmark icon.

I monitor the activity of about 50 sites this way, but imagine that using
this technique with a large number of site could be somewhat cumbersome.
