I installed this plugin hoping I could use it to convert short stories posted at Subterranean Press and other online magazines to epub. I've been trying to use this plug in on several different computers, each running Windows XP with the latest version of Firefox and Calibre and I cannot get the 'selection to ebook' option to work on any of them. I always get a 'web2disk or save failed' error. I checked the file paths and have the enable threading option off. Any ideas on what I can do to get this to work?

If I convert the whole page to epub it works. However, this puts a lot of stuff in the file that I don't want.

Thanks!
