Hello everybody!
I get a message that a stop to the cpu spcs have been put in place to deter content scraping.
Is it that huge?
Thanks for any feedback on the issue. Must be bandwidth deadly. |

I just noticed that with on incognito mode I don't get the message.
Is there anything wrong I'm doing with my browser?
Edit: it does it at random in incognito mode... |

It's not that huge, but it's very annoying. I configured web server to block only some requests, that look like scraper's requests. Blocking algorithm is not very accurate and it blocks some legitimate requests, therefore I turn it off when I'm near the computer.

Hello Gennadiy! It's nice to hear from you
It's an old thing, coupled with the stolen data for ads... I thought I had something with my browser.
Again, thanks for keeping this alive and well!

I modified anti-scraping algorithm not to block logged-in forum users. If anybody still sees this message while being logged in please post here.

Do you say "energize" when clicking on the links?
I don't have this issue anymore. Could it be due to antitrack and co. tech in browser? |

Please see if it works now. You may need to log out of the forum and log back in. Please post here if CPU pages are still blocked for you.

I have this:
on homepage appears "LOG IN" on the top right corner.
But in Forum I am logged in.
I logged in on the home page.
Are there 2 different log in sections? One for the site and one for the forum? |

I'm permanently logged in to the forums, and on the main site page I'm automatically logged in. _________________ My graphics card database can be found at http://www.gpuzoo.com.

Yes, there are two different login pages. They both use your forum username and password, but there are some differences in how they work:
Site's login page linked from the CPU-World home page:
- It logs you in to the site and hides all (most) ads. Small number of old pages may still show ads. Previously visited pages may also show ads if your browser cached these pages. When you encounter a page with ads you can press F5 or Control-F5 to get rid of them.
- It does not log you in to the forum.
- You stay logged in for about a week.
Forum login page:
- It logs you in to the forum.
- It logs you in to the site as well.
- If I'm not mistaken, you stay logged in in the forum for 1 year if you have Autologin feature enabled.
- You stay logged in for about a week on the site. However, every time you "autologin" in the forum, you will also get logged in to the site.

| I got blocked for content scraping after looking at 2 pages. First one loaded. Second one blocked. So I searched to find out WTH this content scraping thing was about, read this thread and then made an account. ...I'm logged in but I'm still blocked. |
