The Proxomitron is sending a different UA to different sites. Windows NT 6.3 would be unexpected, however.

Not that I thought you needed it...this is just one of the sites that popped up when I googled "user-agent." Oh, I needed it. Read it yesterday. |

I can get that little blurb that I posted above from google.com, but with the new UA list, I literally cannot get a debug to display from the results page. The sidki menu does not display either, but I tried via the log window to get a debug...no such luck. It just displays a fully rendered page. I can get a debug with the old list, as well as the sidki menu. I tried to get a debug from many other sites with the new UA list and was mostly successful, except for live mail, which also gave me a fully rendered page. For your information, I did start with a fresh Proxo install this afternoon, unzipped the sidki filterset, kept my Exceptions-U and bypass list, and left the filterset mostly default. I still came up with the same behavior. |

This is what I would expect, if you had not enabled filtering of https. Google defaults to https for certain User-Agents, IE10 or 11 for example. Other UAs get regular http. Other sites also do this. So, I'll guess, that 'fixing' the list allowed google to recognize the browser. Google then sent code that your cfg isn't set to filter. If my guess is correct, you'd like to fake a valid UA that gets the http search page or you could use the hosts file to redirect google to the nosslsearch.google.com server. Hosts entry is Code: 216.239.32.20 www.google.com http://prxbx.com/forums/showthread.php?t...3#pid17253 If my guess is incorrect, (Dec. 28, 2013 11:25 PM)Belarathon Wrote: I did start with a fresh Proxo install this afternoon, unzipped the sidki filterset, kept my Exceptions-U and bypass list, and left the filterset mostly default.

After adding dave's suggested string Code: (www.|)google.com/ $SET(0=f_ua_§Opera/9%2e64 (Windows NT 6%2e1; U).) to your Exceptions-U, google works as I think you would expect. You shouldn't be seeing the sidki menu because your default cfg has disabled it. Quote:Name = "Add Proxomitron Menu 07.09.05 (fail) [sd] (d.1 l.2)" HTH |

Oh...yeah, I eventually disabled that because I never use it, along with the "display important info" filters. I did have it enabled though while testing.
So if it's switching to SSL, than it should work with the ProxHTTPSProxy helper program, yes? |

ProxHTTPSProxy does stop the certificate alerts from the Proxomitron. I have found a couple of sites that do not like something about it. My browsers' flash plugins do not appear to always (if ever) accept something, the cert or the unusual http://somesite.com:443 when they are expecting https:// or ?. My personal cfg needs to be tweaked to expect the odd url scheme. There is no certificate verification. Always be careful and alert when filtering anything important, https or http. Even better, always be careful and alert when using the internet. |

I tried the SSL helper - it didn't quite work out.
Now that you've gone through all that troubleshooting, I've switched to FF. I feel kind of silly now. FWIW, thank you! |

I've never really had much success with it either - is it still being "developed" or is it in a "it is what it is" state?

RE: User-Agents.ptxt update 2013-12-26
Hello ... I would like to add this 'User-Agents.ptxt update 2013-12-29' to my setup but I do not know the exact steps.
Still have limited knowledge in this area ... this update being dated 2013 should still be OK to use in 2018? thanks, Callahan |

JJoe ... OK, thanks for the instructions. That was pretty simple to just add the new information.
I'm not sure the new user agent is showing up ... I also have a user agent switcher in K-Meleon and New Moon ... and they seem to have taken over or are the ones I see when I check my user agent. I have to do more research and study on this subject. Thanks again. Callahan |
