Power Search is a unique tool for searching and scraping data from virtually any website. This utility has an easy to use point-and-click interface that will have you scraping websites in no time.
Many websites are built from server-side scripts that dynamically generate content each time a page is loaded. Website content may come from databases, files, or from a different server all together. Power Search searches the pages delivered by your web server, providing results from the complete website.
Power Search is the easy way to crawl password protected websites. Power Search supports both HTML based login forms and HTTP authentication, making it easy for you to search all types of protected pages.
Power Search can also be configured to exclude certain pages from its search, such as message boards, user comments or other pages you might wish to ignore.
Limitations:
· Limited to 2 project configurations and 25 pages per crawl
· Scheduler is disabled
· Nag screen
