How do you handle CAPTCHA pages appearing in some of the rotating proxies you use?
It was the sliding CAPTCHA but I solved it by following the instructions from the library I'm using to rotate proxies to retry with a different IP when there is a CAPTCHA https://github.com/TeamHG-Memex/scrapy-rotating-proxies At the bottom if anyone is interested

Scrapy rotating proxies
Hi, I've been using the scrapy-rotating-proxies (https://github.com/TeamHG-Memex/scrapy-rotating-proxies) library for scrapy and I'm getting logs in my crawl of type example: "[rotating_proxies.expire] DEBUG: Proxy is DEAD. When I check and test the proxies (I'm using webshare proxies) and urls mentioned on the logs individually they work ok, so I assume it's a problem with the library, has anyone had the same issue of similar problem? (I looked for tickets reported on github but had didn't find any refering to this.

how does one configure webshare api key in scrapy scripts and also to use scrapy-proxy-pool?
Scrapy takes the proxy from the http_proxy/https_proxy env vars. They can include the user/password. As for pools, Scrapy itself doesn't support that, but you can use https://github.com/TeamHG-Memex/scrapy-rotating-proxies or similar addons to use them.

Using free proxies for a spider.
Hello, I'm looking into trying free proxies using something like in this github (https://github.com/TeamHG-Memex/scrapy-rotating-proxies/blob/master/README.rst). However, I need to find my own list of proxy IP's to use. When I look up free proxies I find plenty of options, but I'm rather new to this topic and don't know what to use. There seems to be plenty of different types, and I'm not sure if I should/shouldn't use certain proxy IP's. Any advice on the topic would be appreciated.

Looking for suggestions for a web scraper
User-Agents: Your user-agent list is pretty small, and you aren't adding the other headers that real browsers typically have. For a bigger list of user-agents you could use the scrapy-fake-user-agent middleware.
