When a user agent which sends the user- agent HTTP request header used by Checklink requests http://www.1a- geschenkidee.com/ it claims "An appropriate representation of the requested resource / could not be found on this server." despite being perfectly capable of doing so given exactly the same request headers but with a Firefox user agent. This is probably an attempt to block bots from the site (with a very wide "No libwww-perl based user agents" block), and since Checklink is a bot, it gets blocked. -- David Dorward http://dorward.me.uk/ http://blog.dorward.me.uk/
