THTTPSCAN analyzes recursively HTML pages and reports all the links it finds to a text file: html, mail, jpg, mpeg, mp3, etc...

THttpScan extracts links through HTML pages in the neighborhood of the initial URL. The html links found are added in a download queue. Then THttp-Scan downloads each related page, extracts the links found, and so on...

by using the Link-Report property you can report only links owned by the current site, or the links under the subdirectories of the initial link

The Depth Search Level property allows you to limit the level of pages scanned, starting from the initial page, especially when not limiting the scanning to a site.

By using the Link Scan and Link Report properties combined with an high Deph-Search-Level value, you can easily scan a whole site or only a subdirectory from a web site.

Events are generated for each link found and each page read, returning URL, meta tags, document type, referrer, host name...

According to your line speed, you can extract thousands of links from a starting URL in a few minutes.
