Haven't found the time to try privoxy.
It doesn't require much time to set it up. Just go to surceforge and download (make sure you get the 3.0.0) package for your distro (they are already prepackaged for most mainstream distro) Then redirect your browser to use the proxy: localhost, port 8118 Afterward you can tweak it if you really want, there is a web interface to it. The original Junkbuster is dead, this is the next generation built on the Junkbuster foundation but much, much improved. Cheers, -- Ryurick M.
