@rinzes If you are having trouble with a feed, please post the feed link here so I can look at it. RSS pages are highly subjective because lots of feeds like to take the Simple out and replace it with Complicated.
Edit ** Added a command to use a second parser. If you have trouble with a feed try .rss addxml instead of .rss add
.rss addxml <#chan1,#chan2,#chan3> <name> <logo> <rssfeedlink> (Adds a xml style feed - Try this if you have trouble with a feed.)
@ovelayer I don't think this has anything to do with mIRC. The site is having some problems and the community server is shut down. http://www.pandorabots.com/
Edit: I updated the code with two working bots. Zoe & Fake Kirk are both working because they are not on the free servers.
If anyone finds other working bots. Post the links here and I'll add them.
Updated: Added Alice, Fake Spock and Mike to the working bots list.
I don't use bing personally, but for those who do, they can bring the same search results to irc.
Search engines are a big business and this affects the order of the results.
This was a requested script as posted in the introduction.

[18:38:56] <+ratdog> Bing! has now been rated better than google in very recent blind tests according to sofpedia article. I would like help writing a Bing! search socket for a chanel for mIRC.
The problem that I have is I can't see the source page for non-english ip's.
If someone could pastebin the page source for me, I can fix this in a couple of minutes.
Go to imdb.com
Search for a movie and select that movie, so you are looking at the movies page.
Right click on the page where there is some white space and select "view page source" or similar.
Click on the newly created source tab.
Copy all the text in the source tab. (ctrl+a then ctrl+c)
Paste the results to pastebin.com and post a link back here so I can see it.
This process may be a little different in some browsers.
I made a small change can you please try this again: http://pastebin.com/6qKGJ9F0
Sorry, I'm really just guessing at it because imdb now generates a different page for every language.
@ChUcKst3r I updated the code here with the version I am using. Please try the code at the top of the page and let me know if you still have a problem.
If you are still getting the wrong info for the title, post what you searched for so I can try to reproduce the error.
@Karman It looks like they are doing some changes to the site. They do not have any horoscopes posted right now so I can't check the script. http://uk.astrology.yahoo.com/horoscopes/
I will watch the site and fix the script, if needed, when they start posting horoscopes again.
@Hawkee The scripts I mentioned were changed to use the tcl package http instead of the raw socket method that I use. This is useful for people who would prefer to use http. @Gecko321 Thanks for posting the credit. I'm sorry I was so rude. I had a long day and took it out on your post. I will edit my comment to not be so harsh. @toclafane1 Actually my tcl versions of these scripts were based on my mIRC versions. These were based on my tcl scripts.
This script probably won't work with 6.2 . I don't have the time to sort it out and see what issues it would have with 6.2 but I'm sure there are some. Most likely the issue is that the variable length being to short to read the youtube page. 6.2 is 7 years old and you will have trouble with lots of newer scripts if you keep using it. To upgrade, all you have to do is replace the mIRC.exe with a newer one. I would suggest 6.35 if you have a lot of older scripts.
@s3ff3r To test the script type /eimdb movienamehere (From the client that is running the script)
If this works then the script is working fine.
Something to consider::
This script is made for a bot and requires a second client to trigger it.
You will not see the results of a movie search from the client running the script unless you are using the /eimdb command.
The output to the screen is suppressed to conserve the bots resources.
