How can I set phone / fax filter?

Go to New Extraction Settings dialog - Phone/Fax Filters Tab. For example: you want to extract fax starting with US area code '866' , so enter '866' and '1866' line by line in Fax filter box, like:
866
1866

Why 1866 ? because some fax in the web page may appear starting with "1" like 1-866-455-344 or +1.866.455.344

(Please note: you MUST NOT use '-' or '.' or () chars in fax / phone filter because Program compares filter against formatted numbers that contain no special symbols but they are only numbers. ).

Does this extractor require 'Internet Explorer'?

No. It doesn't require any third party software or library.

I set-up a project with "URLs from File" extraction, enter the filename - but program can not find any link in the file?

Make sure the file exist in the disk. The file must have URL line-by-line, other format is not supported, Program will accept only lines that starts with http://text. Also program will not accept URLs that point to image/binary files, because those files will not have any text data to extract.

When I run Spider, it sucks all my computer power, screen is hardly refreshing?

It seems you are using high number of threads. Decrease the thread value to "5" in "New Extraction Settings - Other" tab. Program can launch multiple threads simultaneously. But remember, too high a thread setting may be too much for your computer and/or internet connection to handle it and also puts an unfair load on the host server which may slow the process down.

Can I resume an interrupted session in Phone/Fax Spider?

Yes. Use 'File - Open' command to open a previously stopped session.

How can I add search engine listing other than those specified in Engine Listing dialog?

It is easy. In "URL" field type the search query URL. Replace the search keyword part with Program syntax {SEARCH_KEYWORD}

For Example: an AOL query URL with "Flower Shop" search is:
http://search.aol.com/dirsearch.adp?query=Flower+Shop
You just replace Flower+Shop part with {SEARCH_KEYWORD} like following:
http://search.aol.com/dirsearch.adp?query={SEARCH_KEYWORD}
After adding the new engine list, click "Save" button.

Can I export the search results to a MS Excel file?

Yes, you can.
