The full story
Xenu's Link Sleuth (1997 to 2017) is a beloved, very fast broken-link checker for websites. This web edition rebuilds version 1.3.9 in the browser with its Windows 95 look and the same crawler behaviour. The menus, colours, settings, error messages and report sections were extracted from the original Xenu.exe and its help file with REA.
