I keep getting the scraping message. I been a very long time user of this website tho I have never really registered this is my go to when I need info on a CPU I acquire or am planning to. I love this website cuz it is prob one of a kind but the scraping messages are letting me search up anything. Is there anything I can do on my end with windows or something to make it so i don't get flagged or what ever it is happening?

Hello, just joined today and I also keep getting that same error:


Specifications pages and related web pages were taken down due to ongoing content scraping.
The pages will be back online once scraping stops.



I have cleared my cache and all but no luck there.
It's a shame because for online CPU info this site is the best out there, I was trying to find out what a Pentium III Coppermine & Pentium III Coppermine T have in difference.

If there is a way to solve this odd issue, that would be nice, the web browser I use is Mozilla Firefox x64 version 134.0.1, I use Win10 Pro x64UK

Did you two not read anything on the 3rd page? It's either your IP address range that's being used by bots to scrape the site, or your browser user agent is erroneously tripping the site's bot detection script.

Band-aid fix for the first problem is to use a proxy or a VPN, the second problem's fix is to change the user agent. Use my user agent string, it still seems to work: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/125.0.0.0 Safari/537.36

Firefox - https://www.whatismybrowser.com/guides/how-to-change-your-user-agent/firefox
Chrome - https://developer.chrome.com/docs/devtools/device-mode/override-user-agent
Edge - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/devtools-guide-chromium/device-mode/override-user-agent

You're assuming a certain level of common sense / maturity from people who only registered to complain.

Changing the User agent in Firefox resolved my issue!
