RE: Version 1.11

["Pamster" <pam@pamster.com>]

Thanks - I think that the reason I was getting so many 500 read timeouts was
a Geocities problem.  Most of the sites that got that error were at
geocities.  When I reran the checker later, the number was dramatically
decreased.
For the problem with saying that links are missing when they're not - I
reran the site in the previous example - and it returned: HTTP/1.1 200 OK -
is that what you mean?
