Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/issues/132

Describe the bug
When using ArchiveBox on macOS, I get the error AttributeError: 'Process' object has no attribute 'kill'. This happens for every archiving method. If Favicon is active, this means the process fails to capture the webpage using wget. Only repeating the command helps.

To Reproduce

AttributeError: 'Process' object has no attribute 'kill'

Expected behavior
ArchiveBox should archive without problems.
When repeating the command ArchiveBox does work, I do get HTML and WARC etc. but only when repeating the command for every archive method I have active.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

OS: macOS 10.14.1
Browser: Chromium 73.0.3681.0

Additional context
Config File:

@pirate commented on GitHub (Jan 23, 2019):

That's super weird, because Process means it's definitely a process object, and all process objects should have a .kill() according to the docs. No google results for that error either...

Anyway, I tried to fix it (2c30cd9), pull the latest master and let me know if it works.
