Hi,
I have purchased 10 private proxies from instantproxies.com and tested them to make sure they work with Google. I have tried scraping tumblrs using those proxies (75 connections with 90 second timeout) selecting only Google as the engine. Attached is the screenshot of the error.

It is still unable to harvest any URLs and I am getting zero results.
Am I wrong in choosing Google as the engine as I have seen some posts which suggest using only Bing and Yahoo and to avoid Google for tumblr scraping?
I am running ScrapeBox on AWS EC2 free tier if that matters.
Edit:
I am also getting continuous errors with Yahoo and Bing. It went smoothly till 30k URLs and since then the errors started piling up from 1k to 7k without any successful harvest since the 30k.

I have noticed that the ScrapeBox showed CPU is at 100%, wondering that is what messing up.
Please help.
Regards
Naser
