    I just want to scrape email address and phone numbers from Craigs List Ads, will Scrapebox harvest phone numbers also? Is their a better program for doing this?

    Or would scrapebox be the best choice? Thanks for help!

    It can be done using scrapebox, but the results won't be accurate. There are many software available for CL scraping. Never used those things so lets wait for some CL users opinion.

    ScrapeBox is absolutly not good for email scraping.
    Use EmailGrabber 2, really excellent :

    I myself used Scrapebox for emails and was satisfied with the results, not sure about phones, had no such need, but emails definitely

    i've already used email grabber but it's really slow after 10-15 minutes. (the pc version) maybe the mac version is better...

    Guys,

    I am scrapping a couple of URL's but all the urls are from the same domain and scrapebox is removeing them automatically after the harverst. Is there a way where i can stop scrapebox from removing those as i need all those urls
