Subject: Proxomitron / adsubtract!


Wow!...  Installed Proxomitron (adsubtract) and it's like I've added 
superchargers to my L70!  This little P120 on a 56K dialup flies along now 
while using two IE windows to access Yahoo and Hotmail sites, and a 3rd to 
browse the Yahoo group for my MP3 player.  All the flash is >gone<, and 
Proxomitron must be stopping the loading of ad graphics and flash before 
they try to load.  I used to sit and stare into the HDD LED waiting ages for 
IE to process everything from one window before a page on the other would 
load.

I wonder if Opera would speed things up on W98 even more like it did on 
Mandrake.  Linux Netscape was incredibly slow on the L50 installation of 
Mandrake.  Even when I put the drive in the L70.  It was amazing how much 
faster Opera for Linux was when set it up.

Just ran through the config documenation... There's a lot there I'll have to 
learn about since much of what's there I don't understand.  Like what does 
it mean to, "enable SSL Filtering to use SSLeay .DLL files to filter Secure 
(https://) pages"?   It warns something about online banking there.  If it'd 
useful, I'll configure it, and turn it of to do banking.

But 'out of the box', it's already improved my life online by leaps and 
bounds!

Good call folks!

Matt
