I have a Win 2000 machine at work, where I use Plucker Desktop 1.2.0.2. I use a proxy to reach the net.
The problem is that Plucker seems to slow down while retrieving channels. Sometimes it seems to slow down more and more, to the point where it simply stops. For example, I have a Slashdot channel (http://slashdot.org, maxdepth 2, don't follow external link) which contains a lot of links. After a few minutes of processing, it seems to have stopped at 4 out of 158 files. This happens most of the time, but sometimes it gets 50+ files before it stops. And it's not just on Slashdot, it seems to happen on most sites. Here's the output from my Progress window: ---start--- Initializing Plucker spidering engine... ----------------------------------------------------------- Updating channel: Slashdot 2... ----------------------------------------------------------- Pluckerdir is 'C:\Program Files\Plucker'...
