Re: Proxomitron Default Config File

Ok, I figured it out... the re-use popups filter has the following in the URL match field:

*clipart*|*animat*|*graphics*|*cgi?*|*clip-art*

I first made a duplicate of it (for backup), added on "(original)" to the name, and went back to the first one and removed: *clipart*|*animat*|*graphics*|*cgi?*|*clip-art* entirely. I went back to the site mentioned and no more pop-ups, gone completely.

Re: Proxo Default Settings


Ok, I figured out how to set the proxy in IE 5.5 while using the proxo help file, and I have DSLr Security forum loading at startup. Works well. I also tried that www.porn.com this time while using 'your' default .cfg file. I had no pop-ups. Is that possible?

I noticed you making changes to the re-use popups filter. I can't find that filter? Did I miss something?...Urgh...

I have to admit I am very determined to learn how to use this program, and even though it does having a steep learning curve I think I can learn it...Lol.

I have been studying your posts and/or threads Z-X, and I wanted to thank you for all of your input, advice and encouragement. I am learning slowly but surely.

I am going to leave these setting as is for the next couple of days and I will contact you with any questions as necessary.

BTW - Should I continue to use hosts? I have ad blocking in there from that edexter site. Big list. I do have my favorites sites in there enabled for a quick start as well.

Thank you,

cj.

While at the site, did you try any of the links? Clicking on the link with my default file you downloaded should open a new browser, because the target function is not being filtered.

In the Web filter section of Proxo, look for "Re-use popup windows". It should be there as that was included in my default config file.

When you find it, dupe it and rename the dupe indicating it is a "backup of the original".

Go back to the original and remove the URL Match line that has this: *clipart*|*animat*|*graphics*|*cgi?*|*clip-art*. Save it, and test out the site again. When you click a link, it should open in the same window now instead of launching a new browser window. (But first make sure you save your default config file and apply the filter - activate it).

But then again, it could really be working for you, and somehow Proxo works slightly differently on both our systems -- which is acceptable.

I am going to leave these setting as is for the next couple of days and I will contact you with any questions as necessary.

Please feel free to get me anytime. I'm still learning this thing too.

BTW - Should I continue to use hosts?

You can leave it if you like until you feel comfortable removing it. I haven't used mine in a long time with success.

Good luck, and my pleasure.

Results by cj:
ZX: I did everything that you had said above (5X).
Tested each time same results:
I got the new browser window after selecting the link(s).
One thing I did notice though, when I click on the browser window to close I don't get the new browser windows popping up any more like you do on the test porn sites. That is an improvement.
I seem to have lost track of what we were trying to accomplish here...silly me!
I am attaching the default .cfg as it is set currently. Please look at it and respond.

Thanks, cj.

Hmmm Cjsmith, thanks for replying. I took a quick look. Go ahead and enable your Proxo Indicator. On the title bar of the browser when you load a page, the word "(proxy)" will be shown trailing the title... this lets you know Proxo is working. Your config has this filter disabled.

As for the Re-use some popups filter, it looks good, you took out the URL match. Go ahead and visit the page again with the filter up top enabled and then view the source code. Do a search for the new replaced "target="top" title="cleaned!"" code. If it is there, clicking on any links should not open a new browser.

But you must make sure your default config is saved first. I'm not sure why yours is not working.

Good luck and let me know.

I have the default config saved. I can not
find the : target="top",etc..code at all.


This is what is logged when I click on a link within the www.porno.com page:

There has got to be something that I am missing here?

Re: target=top,etc...

Sorry Cj.. When you visit the aforementioned website, view the source code, and just copy/paste it into an IM here. I want to see something. Make sure, of course, that the Proxo Indicator and Re-use popup windows continue to be enabled.

One question, have you saved the default config?

Did I say that?

Z-X: I am assuming that you mean the source code as it is dispayed in the Proxo log file. Am I correct?

Yes - I am saving my default .cfg everytime I go in to the settings.

Thanks for the backup.

Cj, I mean the source for the web page. The actual filtered HTML code. Send it to me via copy/paste in IM.

Re: source code load


Good thing I read the IM thing before posting. This source code had links to webpages that shouldn't be posted here at DSLr...Lol

I sent the IM.

Thanks, cj.

Ok... The re-use popup windows filter IS WORKING!

I found many instances of a target="_top" title="cleaned!" in the code you sent me. So now when you click a link, no new windows should open. The linked page should open in the same page, ergo the "_top".

Re: source code loaded: It's alive!


Well, well, well...

I don't know how this happened, but "It is alive!!!

It is working just as you said. I really don't understand this because I haven't made any changes...Huh?

Okay Z-X, I guess we both had our share with this today. As I said in an earlier post, I am going to leave the .cfg set as is, and use it for a few days to see wassup. In the mean time I plan on reading the Proxo help file and as I am doing this can you please post the link to the Yahoo Proxo?

Thanks,

cj.

We can handle that one of two ways, I can open a Zen Dojo for Proxo, or you can paint my hand green.
