Do you know a solution to these 2 problems? Overcoming them would help a lot of people find what they need in web searches.
PROBLEM 1
Mostly links change color to purple when they are visited in search engines.
I used to think that the links were purple because they were stored in the history. However, I have several URL's in my history, but the links are no longer purple, even though the exact URL's are the same. Do you know why this is?
Is there a way, or is there any software that would maintain the links in the color they change to after visiting them for an indefinite period? For example, it would be good if those links that change from blue to purple remained purple indefinitely.
PROBLEM 2
I would like to get a team of people to do a search for something that would take one person too much time. The problem is different members of the team would go to the same websites, and contact the same people, asking the same questions. This would waste time and annoy people.
A solution could be if each member of the team emailed the other members a list of the URL's they have visited, perhaps in a history file. Each member would combine the URL lists to form a "total URL list". It would be good if each member of the team had software to color the links on their webpages a different color if they are in the "total URL list". Then, the blue links would indicate sites nobody in the team have been to, and purple links would indicates sites that have been visited by someone in the team. I am not sure if there is a way to install and combine the history folders of the different members of the team.
Do you know an easy way to do this or any software that could help?
I have written to google.com and asked them if there was a way to search so the search would only bring up URL's with a certain letter. But they said they did not have this feature yet. The project could involve one person doing a search on all the URL's beginning with "A" and another person would do all the URL's beginning with "B". Others would do other letters. This would save overlap or two people in the team searching on the same URL addresses. It would also save similar emails being sent to the same webmasters asking the same thing, if people in the team were writing letters.
Do you have any suggestions on the easiest way to do this?
Also I value your opinion on my below sites and am wondering if you want to swap links
I have many websites linked to http://www.advantagein.com/overview.htm .
There may be more different topics than you are aware of. They contain something for everyone and suppressed information that is rarely seen. I am trying to form a network that can help people like you. What do you think of them?
Your help is appreciated

Answer Hmmmmmmm.....
Interesting...
You see the Link behaviour...is normally embeded in the
web page you are visiting....that is ....defined in the
webpage...itself....the reason we sometime see....visited
links retain their different color while we visit them
again...and some time do not retain their different color
when we visit them...seems to be due to the Browser's
internal cache...and History .....If it retains those
web pages which were visited earlier..then the Links visited
should in theory...retain the color change...but if the
browsers cache is cleared...then It may loose ..this color
change ....of the visited link...
But again...Its the Web page itself...which should have
defined the color change...or should have conformed to the
default W3 standard for web page design...
....People with acceability Option...Use these feature...
But I am .afrain I am ....Not well versed with any such
Utilities...which enable that...
Just a few suggestions....Maybe they help or maybe they do
not...But ..anyway...
Tools--->> internet Options...
then click the Advanced Tab....
scroll down to the browsing section...
and choose ...the Underline Links option...if its not
already selected...Also have a look at various other
setting there...May be some setting...changes...the
browser's behaviour like you want it to be..
....The other options is to get hold of a programmer..
and ask him to write a pluggin ....for such ....for your
browser...Maybe He could write any such...
beside....I have heard ...there are these Bookmark
Utilities....which are highly configureable...
you can have a look at various...of them...from
www.download.com or www.tucows.com then
serach for Bookmark utilites....Browse around..Maybe
you find something....that Helps you..
I am sorry If its not much....since programming is not
