hi ipje,
welcome on this forum.
checking the box "in" in a header filter, that filter will be applyed to incoming header, checking the box "out" that filter will be applyed to outgoing header.
so you have to check the first, the second or both depending of the stuff you want to filter: if you want block incoming header before it reaches your browser or if you want to block outgoing header before it can be sent to web server.
note also that some header exists only as incoming and some others exists only as outgoing (read rfc 2616 for more details).
anyway you don't have to worry, all filters show in their name the box that you have to check to active it, so if you want to activate a header filter, you have simply to check that box.
<edit>:
to read the header you can prefix the url with dbug.., something like http://dbug..www.sitename...and_so_on. also, you can open the log window while browsing.
<edit2>: sorry, i've tryed to fix the false link above but without success. hey arne, why not add an option to escape false url, like [esc]stuff[/esc]?
hth,
altosax.
