Version: AM-DeadLink 3.3
"Get rid of outdated bookmarks and duplicate favorites"
Pros: Great tool for maintaining your collection of web addresses which you intend to revisit at some point.
There are two main planks, finding duplicate bookmarks / favorites in your collection, and if you use more than one browser - i.e. firefox and internet explorer, finding and deleting the duplicates between those two collections.
The second plank is checking that the pages are still in existence. You can set tthe number of times to try, and select the failed attempts for another change some hours later. This works well.
Cons: Weak point is that Firefox 3 uses a different approach to bookmarks, and that AM deadlink is not yet able to write the bookmarks back as it does with Opera and Internet Explorer, and used to d wit hFirefox in incarnation 2.
There are some hints in the help file how to get around this, but for me it would help if there was a clear seven-step plan do this - now do that, which includes renaming the existing file so you can rename it back if the result is not satisfactory.
