I am no expert. I have only configured it once, so this is only how I did it. I assume there is many that has a much better setup, but this is working:) Well, first you need a server with public IP. Then you need to run a proxy server on it. squid is great proxy server that comes with most Linux distros. In the proxy config file, everything is well documented. Secondly you would need a helper script for the proxy server. This is because you want to replace urls (e.g urls that contain ad.*, *.ad.*, *.advert*, advert*) with a url to a blank page (the url can be file:///spam.html and be a local file on your neo, so that you don't have to download it) to remove the spam from the page. For this you can use squidguard. Configure your proxy to filter flash and advertisement with acl rules: # TAG: acl acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 acl manager proto cache_object acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.255 acl to_localhost dst 127.0.0.0/8 acl advertise1 url_regex ad\. ads\. advertis pagead /adsnew /adframe acl advertise3 url_regex tearswep/something/adsenseSide2\.html acl google-analytics url_regex www\.google\-analytics\.com/urchin\.js acl annoying2 url_regex static\.ak\.facebook\.com/js/swfobject\.js \.adicate\. acl microsoft_crap1 dstdom_regex live\.com hotmail \.msn\.com acl microsoft_crap2 dstdomain http://msn.com # TAG: http_access http_access allow manager localhost http_access deny manager # Only allow purge requests from localhost http_access allow purge localhost http_access deny purge # Deny requests to unknown ports http_access deny !Safe_ports http_access deny advertise1 http_access deny advertise3 http_access deny google-analytics http_access deny annoying2 http_access deny microsoft_crap1 http_access deny microsoft_crap2 You need to read everything in /etc/squid.conf and check what else you need. I am not the best person to ask about this, but I hope it gives you an idea. You also want to play with the cache sizes, etc. -- Please don't send me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
