N/P. I forgot one thing which may lead to confusion, though: The numbers in the "Length" column on the "What the Proxomitron is thinking..." page are not the downloaded bytes, but the value of the "Content-Length" header that came with the respective document.

I just found out this morning that after the death of Castlecops and the fact that Grypen's filters haven't been updated in 10 months now, it was a very pleasent suprise to see that there is still new a filterset being developed in 2009!

I tried this Sidki config and I am very much impressed! I find it runs even better then Grypen's did for the sites I browse and its much more configurable and works better.

Once again, I love this updated config set! Keep up the good work! Big Teeth

Well, you're welcome. Although you might be barking up the wrong tree. Wink
The next release will come soon. Afterwards i don't know.

So:
Grypen has two mirrors. This one has an August 2008 update, which is pretty recent:

Michael Bürschgens is providing a very good config since many years, with a large, supportive user base, so regular updates in future are likely:

Still though what you have now is pretty impressive and I find I have to hardly bypass Proxo using your filters, when I had to bypass a lot more often with Grypen's.

In that case, have fun with this set!


Not sure if the current Google filters maintainer is still inclined to reply to my inquiries, so:

"Google Search: Alternate Display": Minor bug -- Google doesn't close <body> and <html> anymore, hence global vars aren't reset, resulting in junk prepended to "site" flyover.

"Google Search: Add Modifier Links": Major bug -- broken.

very interesting catch...
something i certainly would not have caught via "normal browsing"...

EDIT: I just realized that Sidki already updated the filters! I had posted my fix for the first filter.

School is getting busier; I'm working on two project proposals right now. I will make it a goal to review the Google filters every week.

RE: sidki-config: Jan 14 2009 beta 2 - sidki3003 - Feb. 01, 2009 05:59 AM

That's definitely more important than helping out with a darn filter set, stick to it!

RE: sidki-config: Jan 14 2009 beta 2 - Kye-U - Feb. 01, 2009 06:08 AM

I still want to help contribute to your filter set and reduce your work load, and a weekly checkup is nothing time-consuming Smile!
Thanks for all your hard work Sidki!

i'm curious as to what this section does -
Code:
"<script>"
"var prxSpics=["http://local.ptron/sidki_h_$GET(cfg)/Google/google-","
"new Image(),new Image(),new Image()];"
"prxSpics[1].src=prxSpics[0]+"bug.png";prxSpics[2].src=prxSpics[0]+"top.png";"
"prxSpics[3].src=prxSpics[0]+"new.png";"
"</script>"
"<style id="themed""

???

IE6 sometimes didn't load the little images to the right of each Google search result. It worked after inserting that script, which pre-loads these images.

There used to be config users which are die-hard ESPN fans, so i've updated at least that IncludeExclude entry. (As well as ~30 more, but i can't possibly verify all ~400 entries this time.)

Old:
Code:
## ESPN
## ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
((^espnradio|soccernet(-att|))[^.]+.|)espn.go.com/    $SET(0=a_adfn2.)
espnradio.espn.go.com/espnradio/radio\?            $SET(1=adurl:0.)
espn-ak.starwave.com/                    $SET(0=a_adfn2.)
espn-att.starwave.com/                    $SET(0=a_adfn2.)
soccernet-att.espn.go.com/    $SET(0=a_adfn2.a_adscr.)$SET(sUserFn=§theCookie§)
soccernet.espn.go.com/        $SET(0=a_adfn2.a_adscr.)$SET(sUserFn=§theCookie§)

New:
Code:
## ESPN
## ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[^.]+.espn.go.com/&soccernet    $SET(0=a_adcomm1.)$SET(sUserFn=§theCookie§)
a.espncdn.com/            $SET(0=a_adfn2.)

Let me know if i missed something. Just the pages you visit. I'm aware that e.g. arcade.espn.go.com is still broken.

Sidki,

Was that meaning you? Are you finding your return to public config too time consuming and, maybe for some other reasons as well, have to go away again?

Thanks sidki. Is the updated include-exclude file posted somewhere or will it be available only with the next config?

Lee:
It's fine, because it's a time limited effort. I've outlined things in the other sticky: I'll publish a release version; afterwords it's basically up to you (general meaning).

soccerfan:
I'm still working on that list. ESPN always was one of the most difficult sites. Today i've checked the easy entries, so we are at ~100 verified/removed/added/updated entries. I'll attach the current snapshot.
