Hello,

Snipurl/Snipr is a popular URL shortening and bookmarking service. Please read
more about us on our HELP forum if you wish. Our users snip long URLs to easily
remember them, or to share them without the fear of links wrapping in email
clients.

Sometimes, the original long URLs will expire and return a 404. If you are
seeing this message, you are most likely an administrator of some website
and received a hit from our "404checker", which basically connects to your
server and checks if the URL is valid or returning 404. If it returns a 404,
we delete it from our system.

Our algorithm is highly unlikely to barrage your system with such hits, as we
ourselves limit this 404 checking to about 100 URLs an hour and not all of these
100 are likely from your domain. But if this is for any reason inconvenient to
you, kindly let us know.

The user agent string sent with our algorithm is as follows:

Many thanks,
SnipURL Editor
