*NIX's have /etc/hosts Windows has: %SYSTEMROOT%\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC\HOSTS I would assume at least Mac OS X has /etc/hosts or similar considering its roots. What other OSes would need to get covered? Mac OS <= 9? Ian, I think the problem people have with http://localhost:8888/ is that it makes it problematic put Freenet hrefs on webpages, or to post URIs to forums and such, since fproxy isnt necessarily running on localhost or on port 8888. -- I love you!
