Privoxy 3.0.10-1

Privoxy 3.0.10-1 is such a flexible web proxy including advanced filtering capabilities for protecting privacy, filtering web page content, managing cookies, controlling access, and removing ads, banners, pop-ups and other obnoxious Internet junk.

Privoxy has a very flexible configuration and can be customized to suit individual needs and tastes. Privoxy has application for both stand-alone systems and multi-user networks. Privoxy is based on Internet Junkbuster(tm).

Major Features:

1. Can keep outgoing connections alive and reuse them later on.
2. Supports tagging which allows to change the behaviour based on client and server headers.
3. Can be run as an "intercepting" proxy, which obviates the need to configure browsers individually.
4. Sophisticated actions and filters for manipulating both server and client headers.
5. Can be chained with other proxies.
6. Integrated browser based configuration and control utility. Browser-based tracing of rule and filter effects. Remote toggling.
7. Web page filtering (text replacements, removes banners based on size, invisible "web-bugs", JavaScript and HTML annoyances, pop-up windows, etc.)
8. Modularized configuration that allows for standard settings and user settings to reside in separate files, so that installing updated actions files won't overwrite individual user settings.
9. Support for Perl Compatible Regular Expressions in the configuration files, and a more sophisticated and flexible configuration syntax.
10. Improved cookie management features (e.g. session based cookies).
11. GIF de-animation.
12. Bypass many click-tracking scripts (avoids script redirection).
13. Multi-threaded (POSIX and native threads).
14. User-customizable HTML templates for most proxy-generated pages (e.g. "blocked" page).
15. Auto-detection and re-reading of config file changes.
16. Improved signal handling, and a true daemon mode (Unix).
17. Every feature now controllable on a per-site or per-location basis, configuration more powerful and versatile over-all.
18. Many smaller new features added, limitations and bugs removed
