Computer Stuff - Privoxy, Bfilter, etc
I'm trying various Filtering Web Proxies for my small LAN at home.
The incoming cable goes to the machine with a 2-stage firewall which then runs to a switch. The rest of the LAN runs off of the switch. I'm using static (I assign) IP's so no internal DHCP. I had been using adblocker and flashblock on the individual machines but, even in Chrome some webpages were taking 30 sec to load and loading the CPU. A 4-core system should not be bogged down by loading a webpage. So I've been experimenting with putting a filtering web proxy on the incoming box. I tried Bfilter right out of the box. It's OK and the load on the individual machines when viewing the same troublesome webpages I mention above is improved. I recall proxomitron from way back but I'm no good with regular expressions and would rather not learn. I've got enough 'on my plate.' That I know of Bfilter and privoxy are my choices. I'd very much like to stop CSS pop-ups that are so common. Any advice/perspective? Thanks. . |
