you can put it in a proxy too. I wouldn't trust it in anything trusted or sensitive. Some sites do give a warning, but its rare. Usually, something on a site just doesn't work or load till you allow something. To filter all these scripts and ips from websites really isn't that practical. I'm a little nuts too cause I only temp allow stuff 90% of the time. The use is similar to noscript, but for ips. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
