CyberSpyder Link Test 
Version 2.1.2
 
Version 2.1.2 fixes all known bugs that were reported for Version 2.1 and 2.1.1.  
It also includes a couple of enhancements:  
	- The HTML Page Size Analysis report now uses a table format to improve 
		readability as well as to reduce the generated file size for 
		the page.
	- And addition option has been added to the Test Options tab of the
		setup screen to allow the testing of URLs that appear within
		<SELECT tags on a page.  See CyberSpyder Help for details.  

This 'readme' also contains instructions for installation of the program. Please
check the CyberSpyder Web site for possible additional information that may apply. 

CyberSpyder Link Test is a Web site management tool used  to verify that the URLs 
on a Web site are not broken.  In addition to reports on the results of a test, 
it also produces a number of analysis reports to assist in managing a site. 
Analysis reports include site structure and map reports, cross reference reports, 
What's New and What's Old reports and page size analysis reports.  

The program, intended for sites of all sizes, includes features  found in more 
expensive programs, but at a price affordable by the owner of a small business 
or personal site.
It is available in 16 and 32 bit versions.

Update Installation

If you have installed any previous release of Version 2.1 or 2.1.1, then the only 
files that need to be replaced are the '.exe' file and the 'lnkchk21.hlp' file.  
The zip you downloaded contains this 'readme.txt' and two new files.  The '.exe' 
file will be lnkchk21.exe' for the 16 bit release, or 'cyberspyder21.exe' for the 
32 bit release.  Copy this file and the 'lnkchk21.hlp' file to the location where 
you installed the previous release, overwriting the '.exe' and 'lnkchk21.hlp' files 
already there.
 
Complete Installation 
 
Before attempting to install the program, be sure that nothing else is running 
on your system.  The most frequent install problems are caused by something 
else running on your system that is using a file that this install needs to be able 
to update.  Don't forget to check for programs that are set up to automatically 
start when Windows is started, as these are often missed. 
 
Both the 16 and 32 bit releases are standard Windows' installations.  To install 
the program, run 'setup.exe'. 
 
16 Bit Installation 
 
There are no special instructions for the 16 bit install 
 
32 Bit Installation 
 
Make sure that the 'zip' file was unzipped with a utility that can handle long 
file names.  You can confirm this by looking at the names of the unzipped files.  
If you find the file 'cyberspyder21.ex_', then you are OK.  If you do not find that, 
but you find the file 'cyberspy.ex_', then your utility does not handle long file 
names.  (Suggest you get the latest 32 bit version of Winzip from 
http://www.winzip.com/).  The workaround for this install is to rename 
'cyberspy.ex_' to 'cyberspyder21.ex_' before proceeding with the installation (it is 
the only file that needs the long name in this install.) 
 
Potential problems with the 32 bit install procedure: 
 
Some problems which occasionally occur when installing the 32 bit version are 
outlined here: 
 
Sometimes when installing the program, the install will display a message that 
it is about to replace a pre-existing file. If you drag the message window out of 
the way, the file name shown as the file currently being copied is the file it is 
warning about. In actual fact, the install does not replace the existing file unless 
the version on your system is older than the one being installed and it is 
normally safe to proceed. However, if this problem occurs and you want to play 
it safe, proceed as follows:  
        1.Make a copy of the existing file on your system, but leave the original in 
	place. 	The suggested rename is to keep the original file name, and 
	just add `.sav` to 	it..  
        2.Proceed with the install and let it replace the existing file (safe, since 
	you now have a backup copy).  
        3.After the install completes, look in the directory where the program was 
	installed and view the file `St4unst.log` (use notepad). Look for the file 
	that the install indicated it was replacing. The log clearly indicates 
	which files it actually replaced. If it indicates that `File currently on 
	disk was already up to date`, then you can delete your backup copy as 
	the file was not replaced. If it indicates that `File was not found or was 
	an older version -- new file copied`,  then the file was replaced and you 
	should retain the backup until you are sure there are no problems with 
	your system. 
 
If you attempt to install the 32 bit version, and the setup program will not run, 
indicating that it cannot find msvcrt.dll, it indicates that your system is missing 
this file. This file is used by a number of programs, but it is possible that it was 
inadvertently deleted (possibly by the uninstall of some program). If you get this 
message, you can download the file from ftp://cyberspyder.com/msvcrt.zip. 
Unzip this file and place the contained `dll` (msvcrt.dll) in your 
windows\system directory
