Using filters to "pass" that test would cause more problems then help. Proxo is much smarter (Using "smart" filters.. heh) then to block what they call "privacy" leaks.. P.S. Did I use " " enough?

Hi oltelman,

I see you can do it on a temporary basis with the tool's toggle function, but would like to kill them completely. sidki3003 Wrote:- This is still a test version. As such some debug/test filters are turned on that will be off in a later version.

Yeah that's the drawback with the "IncludeExclude" list: this problem is not hard to solve but hard to understand. First to your question.
A Proxomitron list is basically a huge filter with lots of matches, coupled with logical "ORs". That means that each entry should match only once. Now, the current GeoCities section looks like... Code: # GeoCities So adding your URL match to that section goes like: Code: # GeoCities Secondly, since this matter is quite important - i need to explain it as simply as possible somewhere in the config. The header of IncludeExclude currently contains: Code: # Note: Each URL string must only match once! Quote:- The general Include/Exclude List Input on this is appreciated... sidki |

Howdy guys or gals! It's good to be back on a board. I'm mostly a lurker, but I learned a lot and have gotten some great configs and filters. Thanks a lot!!!
Quote:P.S. Did I use " " enough?More than enough to make your point. I've used your config for some time now and the only way to pass the tests over there was to enable "no cookies" & "all referers". Blocking all referers has caused some undo pain, but easily overcome. Quote:it's just a way for them to "scare" people into buying their productBuy what? I've got Proxo. It's better than anything I've seen offered commericially. Since I dropped NAV, it's been freeware for AV, AT, spyware & network monitoring. I check a couple of good sites for reviews on the latest scareware. Quote:And most of the Spyware removers too, excluding Ad-Aware and SpybotThanks Kye-U, but I haven't found a reason to use anything else. I am a fairly conservative surfer, but occasionally feell the bump of a shark on the bottom of my board. Quote:they default to active in this version because i want lots of bug reportsThanks for the heads up, understand why you would want them. By your quote, it appears I missed a thread. Sorry you had to repeat yourself! Quote:What's your browserPIII, W2k, IE6, up to date the last time I checked. (yep, still up to date according to Bill) Also using KPF 2.1.5 Again I don't take them as seriously as experiencing something like this on a site I visit regularly. Quote:I think JD and Kye-U hit the nail on the headAnd they usually do!!! thanks for your response and to everyone else for providing feedback. oltelman P.S. It seems I haven't learned how to use "quotes" correctly. I hope everyone can remember what they said to me. hehe |

sidki3003 Wrote:Sorry, i can't reproduce the slip-thru here -- Same setup as you. I suspected a timing issue (PIII 600 here).Actually it's a Celeron 1.3 & I'm using a cordless keyboard and mouse. I don't know if that makes a difference, but since going to them I've had some strange occurances. Since I've cleared the cache (CTRL + refresh) it's become intermittant. Now after 15 - 20 passes on once in five tries. It's not the first time I've had unusual results with new filters. As I said, if this was happening on a site I visited regularly, it would be of greater concern. Test sites are just that, something to try and move on. One of the few sites of this type that I do place some credence in the results is Jason's Toolbox. Your filter set passes with flying colors there. Disabling the filters you noted in your previous response made a big difference, especially at weather.com and a few others. thanks oltelman |

Hi "~Sidki~",
I have been using Your wonderful New Filter set. And I must say that it is quite an "impressive" one. What I was wondering was, if there are any filters that one should "untick" if they are using Your Set along with My "Jakpack" set? I have "unticked" the two U/A filters that came with Your Set because of the U/A filters that are in Mine. Again, I appreciate Your "efforts & talents", but most of all, . . .Your Friend-Ship. Take Care & Have a Great and Wonderful Week-end, "~JaK~"[smoke] |

Hey Jak,
Right now i would say it should work without disabling any filters. The first filter is pretty important if you are *not* using a browser like IE, MyIE2, Sleipnir, NetCaptor, ..., because it sets a variable that is used to disable filters that would break your browser. Other than that you should be fine because all header filters are immanently set to "multi", so to speak. Have fun sidki |

Thankx "~Sidki~"
Both U/A filters "enabled", . . .and still amazed at Your Filter Set. It does somethings I just haven't seen before. You should be nominated for the "~Geekx Hall of Fame Award~" this Year! You've got My vote My Good Friend. Best Wishes, "~JaK~" [smoke] |
