A message from the forum staff:
As for May 2011, this component is the #1 source of third party component crashes, with 241 reports this month so far. Install it at your own risk.

Current Version: 0.5.5.2 beta

Introduction:

foo_lyricsgrabber2 is a plugin originally developed by T.P.Wang (unfortunately not maintained for a long time). It is designed to download lyrics from the web for specified songs.

Instructions:

Right-Click a song and choose in the menu "Lyrics Grabber" the provider to download the lyrics from.

Requirements:

Foobar 1.0 or later is supported.
For earlier versions please use the original lyricsgrabber you can find here.

Important: Do not install both foo_lyricsgrabber and foo_lyricsgrabber2 at the same time. Those two will crash foobar! Only install one of them.

Rearranging the files and folder solved the problem but it seems you really have to mess with the foobar install directory. This behavior doesn't really go along well with the new foobar version. Would be nice if all the necessary dependencies could be put into the profile directory (perhaps even in the foo_grabber_python folder).
