Privoxy Questions

[iceni60]

hi, i've just started to use Privoxy with Firefox. can anyone show me how to enable SSL. do you have to download the OpenSSL files?

Also, does anyone have any recomended settings for it? or are there any preconfigured files i can download?

even better is there an easy way to use Proxomitron with Linux? thanks.

do you know how to allow animated gifs? should i change the line below?
+deanimate-gifs{last} \

to this?
-deanimate-gifs{last} \

thanks.

Privoxy does not filter SSL as far as I can see - only Proxomitron can do this. As for disabling options, changing the + to a - in the default.action and standard.action files should do the trick (if it does not, check the settings in your browser and any other filtering software).
