Basically I need help from someone who is good at using Python I'm trying to create some sort of checker but have no idea what to do or even where to start. Complete noob here just asking for some help
80% of the battle with learning how to code your own programs is learning how to learn effectively, if someone were to spoon feed you, you would soon rely on them entirely, instead sit in silence and think about what you program needs to do, break it down into its constituent elements. Having been in your position I will give you one word of help...'Requests'.

First read this http://www.diveintopython.net/
If you're going to write a HTTP checker, you need to read manuals on urllib/urllib2, cookielib and threading.

Requests handles all of that...with the exception of threading, but that's reasonably easy to get your head around as long as you're aware of the RAM/CPU % you're using. It took me a while to figure out that I shouldn't be using subprocess with shell = True...weird things were happening with my variables, the RAM was slowly getting eaten until shut-down...to this day I don't know why.
