Keep in mind that sometimes the spider happens to catch a site when it's hosting is shitting out or something, I've noticed that happen a few times... so it goes into alert and then a day or two later, when shit is fixed, it'll be right again.
But the easiest thing to do is take note of what trades have been dropped, then go check yourself. I'd say that 99% of the time a trade goes into alert status at TBN, the person has actually dropped my link or their site has just plain vanished without them bothering to tell me. I've had people get pissed at me for calling them on it and blaming the spider, but since I always manually check to make sure, it's been my experience that the spider gets blamed for people not wanting to own up to being shady...
