ProxyFinder

Ok, so I changed the config.txt file (on mattseh's advice) to proxythreads=40 and got 13 proxies returned. If you are getting 0 proxies returned, play with some of the settings in the config.txt file. Depending on your connection, it may need to be adjusted.

I believe I've sorted out all issues with customers now. Sorry for the poor response, I'll be paying more attention to this thread from now on.
 
ok, i got it working.....but it really slows down my computer. Getting around 10-15 working proxies out of 3350
 
does anyone know good paid forums for proxies? I'm having trouble getting proxies with this tool since the sources in the config are understandably raped to death.
 
Hi Matt

I've sent 2 emails to your support address and haven't had any response so I'll post here. When I run proxyfinder (the .pyc) on linux (Ubuntu) it's using 100% of one core, is this normal? Even using my Macbook Pro it uses 100% of 1 core. Twice now I've had a VPS terminated after a few days due to 'abuse', the only thing running was this script. The VPS's had 1 and 2 gb ram so they weren't that low end. I was using 125 threads, then went down to 75.

A config setting to restrict the amount of bandwidth used would be very useful.

BTW I'm sure you know that due to the GIL python isn't truly multi-threaded, it just switches very fast to give that impression. Have you tried using multiprocess or any python modules that use it to get real concurrancy (eventlet would be a good choice)?
