Timeout Errors when Verifying Links

Timeout Errors when Verifying Links
Hello,

Currently, we have over 750 links and experience "Operation Timed Out" errors when verifying links (with either the Quick Check and Detailed option).

Has anyone else experienced this? And/or have a fix? A "staggard" verify links option may work perfectly, but it's currently not available.

Checking the remaining links manually is extremely tedious. (We check daily to ensure no broken links -- our primary "selling point" for our free service is daily link checking.)

Also, many times, the verify links option gives a "File Not Found" errors, even though clicking the link opens the correct page. How to avoid inaccurate errors?

Thank you,
Jasmine

I don't get actual errors, but the link check on mine is just.. stopping. It checks x amount of links, then.. nothing.I have 208 links in my db but today for example it stopped at 96.

I guess no one knows why this timing out might be happening? I really need to validate my links. I have over 300 and would prefer not having to do this by hand. It worked until about a month or so in my situation.

I have all the necessary Perl modules installed so it has nothing to do with that!
