Turn the connections down. You only have so big of a pipe, and if you have the connections too high then pages won't have a chance to load. Blog analyzer needs to have lower connections then fast poster or proxy harvesting or anything.
Yes, although you won't get a whole lot from the RSS blast, but it will get your forum profiles indexed, if they aren't already.

Here is a video that talks about it as well:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8PWovAQaiU
It just harvested over 3K proxies for me, what wrong on your end?
Well I can say scrapebox uses inter process communication to talk between the addons and the main GUI, the addons are completely seperate programs that just talk to scrapebox and authenticate off of scrapebox. So it could just be attaching to the wrong instance of scrapbox. I have seen this with import/export from harvester type functions on a few addons. I always just import/export to a file. Thats just my two cents on the work around, I don't know the specifics of if/how its fixable.
700K is a big list indeed. I don't even use that big of lists on my 1000Mbit connection servers with 16 hyper threaded cores. There are lots of reasons sbox can hang. Like if you have a malformed list or one of the urls tries to be malicious. Also windows messaging can cause issues. Plus you have to account for the fact that its a 32 bit application, so if you run out of memory its going to crash, as it can only use 2GB of memory per instances. Try a smaller list.
Go for something like 200K. If it freezes, split it and try it. The reason being is its an easy elimination of something in teh list. If you split it and one freezes again, and the other works, then the bad urls are in the one that freezes. You can split it again and see which piece hangs etc. One handy thing that you can do is run it thru the malware addon, it can help rip out problematic urls.
$2000 USD really? You got ripped off. I can buy a nicer one then that for $1000 here in the states, it can't cost that much to ship it to where you are. Id take your pc back and just buy a server, you could get a years worth of a dedi with a 100Mbit connection for that.
Besides, I can say that a 200Mbit connection at home isn't as good as 100mbit connection in a data center. In a data center your physically closer to the DNS and the DNS is going to be significantly more Robust. Your DNS on a home company is likely to be a bottleneck, once you get above 15-20Mbit, DNS becomes your next issue to deal with. I am with AT&T in the states, both them and Verizon have great DNS, my 18Mbit AT&T connection danced circles, like many cirlces around my 65Mbit Comcast cable connection, because DNS was so slow.
As for Norton being a reputable program, sure they have good advertising and they block stuff, including scrapebox. My Mcafee has tried to blog both the Scrapebox.exe and a scrapebox addon this week alone. It blocked a Massive MMO game that my wife plays and I had to add it to the whitelist. Major A/V companies like Norton and Mcafee still block all kinds of legit stuff, and mind you, let bad stuff thru. Never trust them further then you can kick their installation disk.
Windows XP would be worse. Scrapebox is written in the windows 7 kernel so you get better "performance" (lack of a better word at 1 am). Next windows XP has only about 4K available ports vs win 7s something like 15K. Thats an issue because you can wind up having all ports open or waiting and then you have no inet access. Next it has the half-open connections set at 10 where win 7 doesn't have the half-open connections limit disabled by default. So XP would simply make it worse on multiple accounts.
Its unlikely the firefox download manager did anything.
Dunno about squid proxies, I only use Your Private Proxy, as I have tried many and they came out the most solid, so I stuck. I hammer them with hundreds of connections per IP simultaneously and they perform like its nothing.
With all of your patches, did you update your network card driver? Believe it or not, that can make a world of difference.

my scrapebox is crashing with every use now. Everytime I am harvesting blogs, i get the exception error and report it. 2 days of work now to get 26 successful posts out of 8,000. The proxy harvester is no longer viable as I out of 55,000 proxies I harvest, I get 122 Ok and with a re-check I got 4 working proxies! Nevermind this took me 4 hours to do!
For me now, scrapebox does not work and I cannot use it anymore which is a shame because I loved it!

Where did you buy your proxies?
I just purchased SB and I also invested in a list from hxxp://scrapeboxmarketplace.com
But I have a really poor success rate so I assume that because of the bad free proxies!

You have to keep in mind public proxies could be being used at the same time as you, by any one of the 6 Trillion people that live on earth. At which point while your busy checking it works, and some other bloke is hammering Google at the same time, and the proxies get banned and 2 mins later don't work. Its just part of it.
You can try for better/different proxy sources or buy private proxies.
Vid on how to find proxy sources: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_NMkQgK1PY
Buy Private Proxies: http://www.scrapebox.com/proxies.php
Its an addon, due to the way it communicates with the main Scrapebox GUI you can only run 1 instance at at time of many of the addons.
Switch Users on your pc and create another user account, it will probably let you run 1 addon per user account.
Well you could try to fix it in stead of just saying its a shame.
Can you give a screen shot or state exactly what the error says? Try downloading a fresh copy of scrapebox, restarting your PC, restarting your modem/router, disabling all Antivirus, Malware checkers etc..., add a rule to the firewall to allow scrapebox and then disable the firewall and restart the computer and make sure its still all disabled. Turn your connections down and your timeouts up, and use smaller lists.
Download Fresh Copy: http://www.scrapebox.com/payment-received
If none of that works post back and well keep at it.
Its not Scrapeboxes fault that you only got a few proxies out of your 55K proxies, you have bad sources. I went messing around the other day when made the how to find proxy sources video and found more working proxies then that just messing around. Just takes some work, but less then 4 hours a day testing bad proxy sources.
Check out the vid above .
I just tried it again and it worked fine. You can of course add your own, check out the vid above.
However do you have a proxy setup in your IE settings or a VPN or such? Cause 404 could be a bad DNS result from your ISP, or anything along the way. Did you try to restart your PC/Modem/Router.
You could try and change your DNS to a public DNS like:

Thanks for your reply loopline - I have been looking at the video and tried to find some good free proxies on the i-net. But I haven't had much success, so I thought that I would buy some, so I don't have to worry about bad proxies while I get to know the program.
What about your own proxy list - do you have a single space for a bhw member?

Btw - thanks for all the useful posts you have made on bhw. I appreciate that you take your time to make some good posts.

How long does it take to be able to download it? I purchased it and I did use the wrong form of payment. I used my bank instead of credit card btw I closed paypal as fast as I could after I hit continue but it was too late and now im under with my bank which is fine the credit card will have to take the hit. I am curious if I didn't close it and it went through was there a download link or do I just have to wait for the email.

Im trying to post w/ fast poster and SB hangs up every time I try to post with fast poster. I thought it would be a problem with the size of my blog list so I reduced it to 30k blogs only but it still hung. I tried with 5000 blogs and still the same problem.
Crashdump logger tells me that it just posts to 1000 or so blogs and then stop and freezes. I can't even click on minimize button after that and I have to kill the process with task manager.
I'm using SB on a VPS with following specs:
1 GB RAM
2.4 GHz process
100 Mbit uplink
Others are using SB and it runs fine. I talked to my VPS guys and had the VPS re-installed but the problem still exists. I then tried a RAM manager to see if it was a problem with my RAM and it wasn't RAM really 'cause there was 500MB of available RAM and it did freeze.
Any thoughts? Its pissing me off

The old adage, "put yourself in Google's shoes." What do you do with people who are using SB? 1st, you tally up how many pings are coming from each IP divided by time= ping/sec. Then you compare this to your known and trusted sources of other IP's. Then you modify your algorithm to filter and discard all IP's with a higher than usual number of pings/sec.
Once you determine those IP's that are higher, you block pings from those same IP's. The result: You get less working IP's from SB, which work with Google.
What is the lesson here? Use public proxy IP's to scrape, buy private proxy IP's to submit, set in SB settings to maximum intervals when posting (building backlinks). Set up a "Job" in new product, Scrape Board, to search and test all public proxies with Google, before you start scraping with SB.
Then you have an automated app which always has the latest tested Google approved public proxies for you to use in SB everyday. Nice hey?

Some proxies are so loaded with users, they just time out. Also, proxy servers will also close IP's when they are getting too many connections through them. They set a time on them to close and re-open later.
But usually it's the first reason. Another reason is the number of nodes between you and your connection to whatever proxy server you using. This can cause more time delays caused by Internet congestion.
What can you do? Set whatever you are doing in SB, under settings to lengthen the time between submissions, pings, ect.
What else can you do? Buy Scrape Board for $97 through the link inside SB, under "Help". With Scrape Board, you can filter out proxies which take longer than say, 1,000 milliseconds. It has he option to set it to whatever you want.
This way you will know what to expect and won't have so many fails, if any when you know what the connection speed is of all the proxies. But as I mentioned in this posting earlier, you are best to use private proxies when doing any type of submissions.
The reason is you control all the activity on your own IP's. Meaning far less if any, reasons to be blocked by SE's, forums, ect., when submitting. And the great part is, if you do get one of your own IP's banned/blocked, you will know exactly why when you review your own SB settings. Then you can correct the problem right away.
