That all depends on what "pagescraper" did.
we got webparser that reads the html code of pages so you can retrieve values with the help of regexps. If that's to any help.
I don't think, therefore I'm not.

I don't know anything about samurize, but I'm betting from the name of that program that it is a function to "parse" web pages. Rainmeter has that as a plugin called WebParser and you can read about it here: http://rainmeter.net/cms/Tips-WebParserPrimer
