Where to find perfective aspect of POlish verbs on the Internet?

Hi all.

I'm a student of Polish and wanted to know if there was a good site on the net for getting the perfective aspect of a verb.

At the moment, I have several methods of checking:

Use Wiktionary.org (limited number of verbs, or at least links to their perfective counterparts)
Google the imperfective infinitive and see what comes up (usually unsuccesful)
Guess a prefix and check it on Ling.pl (inefficient)

A dictionary is obviously best but I don't always have one on me.

Is there a better online Polish resource I am missing? Perhaps even one that costs money.

For example, I wanted to know the perfective of "siekać" and had to fall back to a dictionary to find it. I would like to be able to find this online.

Thanks!

I'm going to answer my own question because I just read the stick learning resource thread and found a dictionary whose results don't turn up in Google.

The best resources I've found are:

Oxford Wordpower results from this site: portalwiedzy.onet.pl/tlumacz.html?qs=sieka%E6&tr=ang-auto&x=34&y=13
WordReference.com: wordreference.com/plen/sieka%C4%87

Both sites listed the askpect dokonany of "siedać."

(sorry about the links -- I can't post them yet because I'm new)

Zman: siedać? there is no such word! He meant "siekać" and he wrote it correctly in previous post. Stop jumping at his misspell and contribute to original question if you can.
