Used to use DeployMaster ($$) but somewhere along the way what used to be excellent support just disappeared. Switched to Inno and v happy. Not using it for ubot yet?, so while I'm sure it can do the job as it does everything you would possible want to do including phone home and the laundry, don't have settings to recommend.

Nowadays it is possible to identify the browser using JavaScript, each browser has unique errors that makes this possible. User Agent no longer adds much. They can even recognize that selenium is being used.

if you know what you're doing with regard to VMs, ovh.com has some interesting dedicated server offers.

Guys, The announcements and news forum is a little bit stale. A new post in the news forum would be news (joke - ha ha). Anyway, Ubot sent out a marketing email with some hot feature buzzwords, but being a marketing effort, there's not much room for meat. So where do we find the meat nicely collated into a single high-density detailed article/post/linkfest/whatever. Feature list looks like it could be interesting. Main thing I'm interested in technical details about the new browser. rgds

welcome to the world of ajax. you'll be seeing more and more of this. everything interesting in those pages is loaded dynamically, so you need to process the DOM. Best thing to do with these pages is to look at them using the developer tools or firebug first to figure out what's going on.

>easy of creating automation sequences in ubot into the c# environment. If what you refer to is taking the 'automation process' rather than actually using ubot in conjunction with your C# then there's very little that ubot does that can't be wrapped into your own C# code. Simply implement equivalent high level functions. Of course, that's a lot of work, but I guess you could then actually parse and run the ubot scripts directly from C#. By the time you're finished you've probably cloned ubot and spent a lot of time doing that. Of course, some of the simpler sequences could be a lot qu

mobileconsultant, Thanks for the heads up. I sort of just assumed that Dan was the author as well. My mistake. I did do a search for a link to the plugin, but probably didn't do a very good job of it. Actually, I did see the link to http-post, but did not realize that this was the plugin that Dan's videos were about, http being a bit more than just http post Thanks again!

Dan, i'd like to know what this plug in does but can't find a link to info about it. I'd PM you but I can't do that yet because of posting limits. Maybe you could include a link to the product it self? (Oops if I missed the link, but I did look.)

So, seems v4 is a requirement. How to get - is available for download?

I had a couple of minutes of weird behavior from ubot shortly after starting up. Scripts would not run and could not run nodes either. Manual operation of most other UI elements worked fine. After a couple of minutes the problem disappeared. I'm guessing that there's a ubot server doing on the fly compilation of the scripts and that my problem was that I was not connected to this server, even though I had just been authenticated by the phone home start up. Can anyone confirm this? If not this, why would this be happening?

Hmm. Back today to take a look at what ubot is up to nowadays. It's been a couple of years since the last time I had a look, so just shelled out for the developer version upgrade. Now I find this thread and I'm wondering if I should be working with v4 instead? Last version I used was v3. Was interested to learn about plugins, looks promising. So - are plugins stable in v5? or should I be looking at v4? Is it still possible to get v4?

Keep the inbox small to makes processing speed consistent. It's not clear from you reply whether you are simply adding labels to the messages or moving them to the label. The key is to "move" the messages to get them out of the inbox. If you just add a label to a message it stays in the inbox. For fast processing, POP3 clients can store the .eml locally (if required) and delete the message out of the inbox. Make sure that gmail is configured to accept the delete command, otherwise it will ignore the delete instruction. If you need to keep the emails in gmail, then you need to go in and m

Hi there, I have a site with complicated HTML that presents data as a visual table. Underneath, the HTML is a bunch of divs, multiple tables per row , and multiple rows containing related data. So, no nice clean pattern that I can parse. Using code this is not be a problem, but I want to use ubot for this. It's no problem to just extract one cell from each row, e.g. a URL or a description, but I want to know if it is possible to extract data from multiple cells in a single pass. I can't provide links or sample HTML as the site is behind a login and the data is confidential. So my qu

Haven't used gmail with ubot yet, but I suspect that if this might be an issue that can be solved by using labels. Are all your emails sitting in your inbox? If so, you can move your mail into labels and keep the inbox small. And that should speed things up. And you can still use the All Mail feature to see everything. Downside is that unless you are using an IMAP client, you have to do this manually.

Another option is to set up a web page (e.g. showip.php) that shows the client IP. setup the proxy and then navigate to showip.php and extract the IP and compare to your proxy IP. If you don't have your own page for this, you could use sites like whatismyip.org, etc
