Err.. to report internal links, which point to 
external sites? To report broken links, the engine 
will have to check them remotely!
If you just want to test *internal* broken links, 
either look at the hts-log.txt file, or mirror.. the 
local site in another project!

Example:
<file://c:\my%20web%20sites\foo\index.html>

(drag and drop the top index.html file in a new mirror 
URL window)

Ensure that default filters (+*.gif and so on) have 
been wiped out, or the engine will attempt to connect 
to the outside world.

This is ONLY useful to get binary or html files, 
WITHOUT parsing them, and without crawling into. It is 
similar to get files one by one, using a browser.
Not very useful, in fact ;)
