Hey UBotBuddy, Could you send me a PM I can respond back to, I am not able to for some reason..... I needed to ask you a question about what you offer. Thanks

I'm building a simple bot that fills a form and scrapes the results. There's only one part of it I'm stuck on and I'm wondering if this can be accomplished with ubot. In one of the text boxes on the form, I need to input one day later than the current date and time. The $date function could possibly be used and then added to by a day? If anyone knows how to do this that would be great.

No, but honestly I haven't used ubot to solve any captchas yet. This is a workaround for a totally different program. (Just this little custom program I got from a friend).

Thanks again Botbuddy. Oh, I understand JohnB. Thanks for the tip. This is a workaround solution for me to get another program to solve a captcha that cannot, but it does have an open .bat file command. So I need this other program to open the .bat file which will run the bot, which will in turn decode the captcha so the other program can solve it. So yeah, I need to be able to run the bot without hitting the play button, but only when this other program needs to solve a captcha. Windows Task Scheduler will come in handy for me for sure, as I just found out about some of the stuff I coul

Oh one more question just so I understand correctly. If I opened it with a Batch file, would it override the need to push the play button, or would I need to specify further commands within the Batch file to execute it?

yes yes, that helps very much to know. Thanks a lot! That opens quite a range of new directions I could go with ubot.

I was wondering if anyone knows if this is possible with ubot. I figure it all should be except for maybe one part but figure there may be some sort of workaround for it if not. First the simple part. I just need ubot to load a url from a .txt file and go there. Then find the captcha on the page and solve it with any of the captcha services. But instead of filling out the solved captcha, saving the correct answer to a .txt file. That part should be easy I figure. The other part is what I'm wondering about. Can I run this captcha somehow without having to push the play button? I'm sure I

Your site looks have been hacked!

Normally, if I wanted to try to make a bot, I would just start (trying) to put something together. But with some of the previous feedback I've heard about sites like squidoo and facebook having features on pages that prevent bot automation, I was curious if anyone has successfully made a Google keyword tool bot since they've redone their page layout? I may just jump in and start messing with it but I wanted to see how others have done first as it looks like a page that might have features to prevent bots from using it.

Ok, so I tried to run it the way meter suggested, scraping just the meta description. I ran the bot and tracked it's results, and it got stuck on the 55th url. I think it's made it that far before. I'm still looking for a solution for this issue, so if anybody has any other suggestions about how to solve this problem that would be a big help. I know this software is capable of doing tasks like this without freezing up, because I made a different simple bot that's been running for the last 2 weeks or so non stop without freezing!

Meter, could you be more specific? Should I just try to scrape the meta description and leave off scaping the urls and see if that is what caused the problem?

I have a simple bot I made that scrapes for two pieces of data from every url I add to a list for ubot to navigate to. I'm actually having two issues with this little bot. The first (and my initial reason for posting this) is that every 20th or so url ubot navigates to, it gets stuck on that url and won't continue on to the other thousand or so pages I want it to scrape. Second, it's basically a workaround of what I really want to acclomplish with this tool. One of the pieces of data I'm trying to scrape shows up maybe 50 to 75% of the time in the meta decription of these pages, so I've be

I restarted my computer and it's working fine now. I still not quite sure why it was having that problem but it's fine now.

It says my username:password:agreed

Another thought I had which may be the problem (or maybe not?) could be the fact I bought ubot awile back, then got a refund (because I didn't think I was capable of using it effectively), then bought it again (after learning a bit more about ubot). When I bought it the second time around I was having issues with it due to my old info still being ubot's database, so I couldn't use the program. I'm thinking this could be a possible issue that may have crept back in somehow maybe, or it's at least worth bringing up if it needs to be dealt with.
