Does your computer "dynamically understand" that there is no connection? Either way, I would define a keyboard shortcut to this command in Unix-like systems and manually press it whenever my computer loses connection: curl 'http://localhost:8123/polipo/config?' -d proxyOffline=true There is no bulletproof and automatic way to do what you want, but there are non-bulletproof ones, which depend heavily on your environment. -- -- Rogutės Sparnuotos ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Cloud Computing - Latest Buzzword or a Glimpse of the Future?
