Hi!
Offline Explorer Pro's Content Filters feature does not work with certain Web sites. Here are two examples.
I created a project which checks TMZ for updates. When a new story is posted, the project should go bold in the Projects tab. The filter text is a piece of code that only appears in the print version of the page. OE does not detect said filter:

This project should go bold when a 5.0+ earthquake happens, but gives false positives because the filter feature doesn't work properly:

There plenty of sites where the filters work, and when they do, it works flawlessly. But filters fail on a large number of sites, as well.
(btw, I e-mailed support regarding this problem about 3 weeks ago from the same e-mail I listed when posting this message)

I am not sure what is wrong with the first project - it looks like it doesn't save the files correctly.
The second one is simple. It always downloads the first page and this page makes the Project become "bold". The server reports it as always changed. I would suggest you to check the box "Check file size" in the Properties dialog. This will make the project "bold" only when the page actually changes.
I am sorry for the missing E-mail. It looks like modern anti-spam filters block so many letters nowdays. Forums are reliable.

Hi Oleg!
This is a very simple project that doesn't do anything useful but exemplifies the problem.
OE is unable to detect the word "reuters" on Reuters' home page. (It's on there a whole bunch of times.) In fact, it can't detect ANY letter, number, or space (" ").
It would be great if this bug was fixed for OEP 6 or hopefully sooner... :)

By comparison, this second project works exactly as intended: It doesn't download the first page, only the print versions of the articles that the page links to using code that appears only in the print pages. By never saving the first page, the project only goes bold when a new article is posted regardless of whether the first changes size or the server reports it as having changed - and this is what I was trying to do with the first two projects I posted.
Again, there are many sites that OE handles well, but also many that OE can't handle.
