Proxymitron, Need help setting it up!

I know im asking a lot of questions, but I like to know exactly what it may interfere with. Thanks

 

Also, i dont think Proxomitron will do anything for Popups since Firefox already does.....


Edit: Tried Proxomitron on IE and failed the Ad-ware popup test....

 

I dont have the help file, only readme.

 

You can't really use Proxo just "as is" any longer and expect to get the full benefit. The filter sets are too old now. You need to get some newer filters. This is probably why you saw popups on IE and if you Google you will see the Google strip ads.

There are a number of filter sets out there to choose from. I'm using JD5000's alpha extra filters but there are other good ones too. You should visit the Proxo forums at Computer Cops. JD has his official Proxo forum there and there is the original forum that used to be run by Scott Lemmon himself. It is now run by CC mods and is dedicated to Scott's memory.

So tell me about combining Jakx and Kye-U's filters, what do I do there?

Is it simply merging Jakx into Kye-U's existing set in Proxo?

Cheers

 

None of the programs you list do web filtering (Ewido and NOD32 scan your system for known malware, ProcessGuard restricts application activity). Some firewalls (Kerio Pro, ZoneAlarm, Outpost) offer limited web-filtering (removing ActiveX, Java or Javascript) but do not offer the control that a specialised filter like Proxomitron can.

As for Proxomitron's main purpose (rewriting web pages to your liking), that would seem fairly straightforward. Jakx's filters should not affect normal browsing - some websites may however refuse access if they detect a proxy being used (e.g. some online banking sites) so you may need to disable them in such cases.

 

Yup! Just merge! I've made it so that you don't need to go through the hassle of copying any Lists file.

 

Thanks Kye-U, I'll try it tonight.

Cheers
