Hi Wilson,
What a great software you guys have here, exactly what I was looking for. Now, if only I could figure out how to make it work.  I'm the owner of 7 different Yahoo Groups and just downloaded the free trial version of PGOffline, Version 3.0.67 and am running Windows XP Home. 
I have the same login for all groups and all groups are private, but I am the owner of all of them. My login credentials are correct. 
An example of one of my groups is http://groups.yahoo.com/group/CT-Moms
with over 20,000 messages in this group alone, I definitely need to back up these messages.  Here is the error I'm getting: 
5/4/2009 3:26:18 PM >  Set group's info
5/4/2009 3:26:18 PM >  Authorization started
5/4/2009 3:26:23 PM >  Authorization accomplished
5/4/2009 3:26:23 PM >  Get group's list
5/4/2009 3:26:28 PM >  Error : Invalid page format.

Thanks in advance for your response!

Yahoo is or just recently made some BIG changes that affected PGO. I think the fix is about complete from what I've read in the other forum topics here.

What you're seeing is what everyone else is seeing, so you are not doing anything wrong  yourself.

That sort of thing happens iwth auto-bidding programs for eBay also. When eBay changes their user interface and programming, the program needs to be updated. Sometimes this is as often as weeks apart. And there are times in-between that my auto-bidding program will fail because eBay just had changed something that messed things up.

It's no different with PGO. But this was a BIG change that led to other Yahoo glitches that needed other changes, a move to another server, and now they'r egoing to try implementing a fix for the group search feature, which might not affect PGO but it might also break something else that does affect PGO. This required a wait and see approach from the developer of PGO because there was no way to know what would be changed and how it would affect the PGO program.

We're all patiently waiting for the fix, and I'm sure it will be rolled out very soon. I offered to beta test the new fix if there's a need to do so in order to spare others some disappointment.
