    It seems to be a matter of timing. FOpen() has a timeout
    length that we don't control. Will add some more tolerant
    code.

    Haven't looked at the google thing yet.

    It now gives better diagnostics for why a link is not
    working, and waits longer for the link to open.

    Still to do:

    1) complete the code for pure url validation in urlCheck().

    2) handle http redirects better: currently urlCheck() says
    the link is broken even if the redirect goes to a working
    page.

    3) explain weird google references (maybe referrer?)
