48 Web page content filtering (removes banners based on size,
49 invisible <quote>web-bugs</quote>, JavaScript and HTML annoyances, pop-up windows, etc.)
55 Modularized configuration that allows for standard settings and
56 user settings to reside in separate files, so that installing updated
57 actions files won't overwrite individual user settings.
63 HTTP/1.1 compliant (but not all optional 1.1 features are supported).
69 Support for Perl Compatible Regular Expressions in the configuration files, and
70 generally a more sophisticated and flexible configuration syntax over
77 Improved cookie management features (e.g. session based cookies).
89 Bypass many click-tracking scripts (avoids script redirection).
95 Multi-threaded (POSIX and native threads).
101 User-customizable HTML templates for all proxy-generated pages (e.g. "blocked" page).
107 Auto-detection and re-reading of config file changes.
113 Improved signal handling, and a true daemon mode (Unix).
119 Every feature now controllable on a per-site or per-location basis, configuration
120 more powerful and versatile over-all.
126 Many smaller new features added, limitations and bugs removed, and security holes fixed.
