RE: Windows Live Messenger & live.com ; required exceptions
Hello again,

I find I can now indeed log into Messenger, with secure page filtering disabled in Prox's config and without my bypass list entries.
I can't yet fully test all Messenger functionality, as I currently have no contacts online.

Assuming this change is all that is needed (which it may not be), how do I allow Prox to generally filter secure pages but set up an exclusion/bypass entry for login.live.com?
IncludeExclude-U.ptxt has an example of :
don't use half-SSL (if default) $SET(0=i_ssl_h:0.)
so I don't know if 'don't filter ssl' would be $SET(0=i_ssl:0.)
eg
*login.live.com* $SET(0=i_ssl:0.)
?

Alternatively, Messenger routes through Internet Explorer's Internet Options doesn't it, (where I use Prox in circuit on http and https), so maybe a simple solution would be to use the general connection settings options there and set:
'don't use proxy server for addresses beginning with'
for
https://login.live.com
?
