         imo the members of this BB must wonder why I haven't registered......an rightously so.

         the problem is with me...absolutely none else.
    as Paul can perhaps attest to...there are certain reasons I don't register......no matter where.  the same reasons are why I never use e mail........now to most people that may sound absurd.......well consider how I must feel..forever being "a guest".....making friends..growing fond of members...but always just "a guest"

          I haven't met a person here that I would not welcome to my home.....an yet..registering is not an option in my case......at least not for awhile yet....should I get a second computer for home use....then no problem.....until then I can only ask that everyone please be as understanding as you feel that you can.....an I thank you for doing so.

         Unicron...I honestly take your mention of registering as a compliment.......an wanted to offer you and others the opportunity to understand my situation.....an no its not an easy situation to understand.....however. bear in mind that it took three years for me to open an e mail account....an Paul was the ONLY person I have ever sent e mail....then recently  I lost the account....Spy 1 may perhaps remember my situation....maybe Mickey also.....

           well..at least you and other members now know that I have a rather unusual situation....regarding registering and e mail.  an believe me I've tryed countless ways......there has been no lack of trying.

    I'm pretty sure the last 2 or 3 versions of Proxo addressed that problem. Maybe I'm wrong.
    Hope your gut gets better Snowman. Food poisoning is a horrid thing to put up with.
    I went to that site with no adblocking software, but I did have Mozilla set to block 3rd party images (ads), 3rd party cookies, and urequested windows (ie. popups). Didn't stop a single page from loading. I think that site got ripped off.

         yes its also my understanding that the newest versions of proxo are immune.

        yeah this illness has knocked me silly...lost 18 lbs in two days.....not good.    can barely sleep....during a business meeting yesterday my attorneys having my best interest in mind canceled the meeting mid-way....

         well Mike..good to be hearing from you...hope you are doing okay............

  17. Pete,

     You didn't get blocked from the site with spyblocker running.  I just visited there and the page loaded fine, minus the junk.  Click on some of the buttons you see, browsing the site is a snap with SpyBlocker.

     Furthermore, SpyBlocker allows me to run a proxy such as proxomitron STEALTH.  That site can't detect anything I run.  The trick is to use a pacfile (pacfile generator) and lilnk your ad blocking proxy to that.  Therefore you technically don't have any ad blocking installed directly into your browser so NOTHING is detected.  

     If anyone needs any help securing your adblockers I'd be glad to help since this is the way of the future it's important to know you can fight back!

     BTW, 5.2 is out now.  (http://www.spyblocker-software.com)

    I have to admit, your product is pretty slick.  I really should check and see if 5.2 will fit in my configuration of chained proxies.  Is there an online manual, Paul?

    Many thanks.

    Rats.

    This means I can't use it, since JAP uses 4001, chained off Proxo on 8080.  Shame.
     
  21. Sure you could use it,  neither of these two programs you listed use port 80!

    I use SB  > Pacfile > Prox(8080)

    Any combination can be achieved.

    Ding!  You might just have a paying customer, Paul!

    IE -> SB (Use Automatic config script 127.0.0.2) -> Proxo (via pacfile) -> JAP -> The World!

    So where does port 80 come in?   :)

    Port 80 is spyblockers home port,  this port is used for detection of unwanted resources.

    Does this mean a webserver can not be run on the same machine?

    is there no registry setting to change this?

    if that webserver runs on port 80 you can still use SB to generate a hosts file, but the rest of the program will not be functional.   There is no setting to change this.
