I have a scraping script that was developed for me. It has been written in python and runs from python 27 I believe. It also uses BeautifulSoup. The developer got it to work for me on my laptop, but now I cannot get it to work on my desktop ( I believe it is something to do with BeautifulSoup not being installed correctly. I need someone who is familiar with these things to get this program working on my desktop, it is probably an extremely easy and straightforward job for someone familiar with python. I would also like a easy feature added to the scraper. Currently when the proxy doesn’t connect, it will skip and go to the next account, I need it to retry with a different proxy.

Hi! I'm the one of the best Python developers here that's why I'm sure you'll be impressed with my work. I can find what's wrong with the script on your desktop and changes to the code you want (proxy support). Please show me your code so I can check everything. Thanks. Roman

Hello, I am a webscraping specialist. I spent the past 4 years focusing only on data extraction and web automation . Most of my projects are done with python. I can sort out installation on your computer for 20 pounds. After that, I will have a look at source code and give you feedback how to implement the extra change you are asking for. It s probably a matter of miniutes for the original developer but might take up to a couple hours for me. I hope we can work together. I love python and scraping. Best regards, Frederic Bazin
