Default LnS Config for SSH to stop Java?

This question IS about the LnS firewall, I didn't mispost, (I think)

When I am connected to a proxy via SSH tunnel, when I visit a site such as:

http://www.stilllistener.com/checkpoint1/

My real IP is shown. I don't want this.

I ran across this post in another thread:

Quote:
"It is also possible for a webpage to include Java/Javascript code designed to cause a browser to make a direct connection bypassing any proxies. Aside from blocking all Java/Javascript, the best defence against this is to use your firewall to restrict your browser to contacting the proxy only."

(full thread here: http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=55603)

How do I configure LnS to do this or was he talking about a hardware firewall only?

Thanks.

Pretty easy, actually. Just go to the "Application Filtering" tab in LnS, find your browser in the list and double click on it, then just enter the IP address (or range of addresses) for the proxy you use
