Scrapebox Bing Harvester Broken

Is anyone else experiencing problems using scrapebox bing harvester after recent update 2.1.0.21?

Majority of results are showing "0 results" or when it does scrape results range from "1-10 results". Even though when checking manually there are hundreds of urls and page results.
Also speeds are extremely slow at Bing scraping "Average ulr's/s: 3".
Proxies are not issue tried other engines and they work fine and speeds are as normal for other engines.

I was scraping bing very good yesterday before updating scrapebox. So that is why I believe either Bing changed something or scrapebox update broke something.

Any input @loopline @Sweetfunny would be helpful.


Already tried this that was receommend from other thread:

go to settings >> harvester engine configuration >> import >> download default engines.

If that does not work, then for bing, in that same area, click on bing and then click additiona header/settings tab

then for the user agent change it to

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:86.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/86.0

Scrapebox does not force engine updates, so the update shouldn't have anything to do with bing.

What country are your proxies from?

If you turn off proxies as a sample test, does bing work or no?

and what country is your local ip from?


Also I guess before you do any of that go to settings >> harvester engine configuration >> import >> download default engines.

Then try it.

Proxies USA
Local IP USA

I got new list of proxies from provider still same results.
I tried scraping without proxies still same results. I tried scraping many times without proxy using local IP since I have dynamic IP I can change IP but no success.

When checking manually there are hundreds of urls and page results. Yet scrapebox harvests "0 results" and when it does it scrapes very little.

I strongly believe bing must have changed something that scrapebox needs to update to work again.

Has bing scraping come to an end and maybe they put more restrictions like google did? Or is there possible workaround.

Ive posted in so many threads here about bing, because bing has become dynamic, so I lose track, but did you change the user agent?

Bing quit working with some user agents, and so it only works with the latest ones.

under settings >> harvester engine configureation >> bing >> additional headers

Put this as the user agent
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:88.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/88.0


does it work?

Bing is working fine for tens of thousands of scrapebox users daily, so no its not broken, its just a handful of people that need to adjust their setup for this reason or that.

HAHA I like doing it, I enjoy helping people.

I benefit, don't get me wrong. I mean I wind up with a reputation by giving advice and so people buy my products because I have a good reputation, plus scrapebox sends me a referral of someone that wants to work with me once in a while etc.. So its a win win really.
