Links from the following domains will NOT be checked, usually because the servers either do dumb things (every response is a 200?) or block the bot:
- RFC2606 test domains (e.g. example.com, example.net, example.org, etc)
- berlinonline.de* (incompatible)
- web.archive.org* (rejects bots)
- archive.is* (rejects bots, and is an EXTREMELY slow site in general)
- cloudflare.com* (intermittently rejects bots... and humans too...)
- cyberciti.biz* (rejects bots)
- linuxconfig.org* (rejects bots)
- openvpn.net* (rejects bots)
