A network address is captured from a source document or signal and is stored in a data structure such as a list for subsequent use. When a network resource at the network address is subsequently visited, the network address is automatically deleted from the list. The list storage and deletion functions are integrated into a World Wide Web browser. If a connection cannot be established using the network address, the connection is retried, and the network address is marked for delection after a pre-determined number of retries. Thereafter, if another connection attempt fails, a user may delete the network address or retain it for another retry after a user-defined time. Identified network addresses are accessed over the network to validate their correctness and a snapshot of the page displayed is stored and related to the network address.
