usually the proxy scrapper finds 800-1500 proxies recently under 100
I can also confirm this with 85 collected proxies with GSA PS. I'm only running GSA PS as a future backup so the current low level is no concern for me. It isn't usually this low. Filters I run are - Since we're dealing with a resource that's free to everyone, this may be temporary

I have no filters at all (see attached) and only 74 proxies
It ran for the last several days with one reboot at the middle
Hi Sven, no change with the new version. would sending you logs (if any) will help?

OK send logs, but most likely they do not hold much information.

If you are really struggling I eliminated the problem by
1. Backing up C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\GSA Proxy Scraper
2. Cleanly Uninstalling GSA
3. Clean any remnants remaining with a Free Uninstaller
4. Reinstalling GSA
The important files seem to be stored in the above directory

Or you clear the cache in options->provider

Hey Sven - Great suggestion Thanks I did try that, and it ignored so many providers when I tested it, under the Settings / Automatic Search / Test Option, and I know the providers wernt Dead.
I know you can change the Depth that GSA Scrapes, as per the Tutorial I created

But it is ignoring sites for a certain time if they do not update there proxies in a longer time. It is not completely ignoring them.

no filters. same setup as was last week, and produces >800 proxies
For the rest of us, we aren't so lucky. I'm glad I reverted to using private proxies
