Maybe the new Google version will be better.What I meant is that if Google finds a link, and you try it and it fails, you can select "Cached", at the end of the little quoted blurb, and you'll be taken to Google's stored version of the dead link. The cached version is sometimes better, if it's a lengthy page, as the search terms are highlighted. Embedded links still work, etc.
I've only used Copernic a couple times. I haven't yet done a head-to-head comparison.
