When performing a URL check with a "contains" clause, Servers Alive saves 150 bytes (by default) of the retrieved web page in the log file. You can change how much is saved by changed by adding or editing the following registry entry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\DBU Consulting\Servers Alive\Log\HTTPBytesinLog (string) A value of -1 means the full web page. Use this with care since your log file will grow very fast. A value of 0 defaults back to 150 bytes.
For this test I would set it to 0 and then check when you get a down what exact page we did get from the server.

Weirdest thing (which I thought I had fixed by changing the checks to use HTTP 1.1, but apparently not.) Basically they check content on a page and look for a word near the end of the page. Previously if we got a DOWN message, it meant the page really had a problem. But now, it apparently random gives us DOWN messages with the response: Got page and content is NOT ok We've tested the pages dozens of times manually and with other tools and have not seen a single error. Other URL tests for other products we have seem to be fine. Any suggestions? (and as we appear to be blocking you due to the spam blacklist problem you mentioned, I'll review the website in the morning.) Greg D.
