Features: works right out of the box, kills ads and junk scripts with The Gread Heuristic Lightsaber, configures Mac's newtwork preferences automatically, doesn't need blacklist updating, and the ad-removal is configurable. Love it.
Aside from forwarding issues: the app seems like an optimal ad-filtering solution - heuristic analysis, my God!, someone had finally implemented in ad-blocking... and flash-filtering!
1) I have my TOR running, occasionally I use some HTTP proxies, and I decided to configure them both into one proxy-chain and see what happens then.
2) Here's my setup:
Browser -> bfilter HTTP proxy (127.0.0.1:8080) -> TOR SOCKS4 proxy (127.0.0.1:9050) -> some HTTP proxy -> Internet.
Now I point Firefox' HTTP proxy to 127.0.0.1:8080, ads are filtered out, if it point it to 8118 (TOR), my identity is masked, but not both. :)

3) Here's my forwarding.xml (which doesn't work):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<forwarding>
<option name="foo" selected="selected">
<proxy-chain>
<proxy>
<type>socks4</type>
<host>127.0.0.1</host>
<port>9050</port>
</proxy>
<proxy>
<type>http</type>
<host>ip address goes here</host>
<port>port goes here</port>
</proxy>
</proxy-chain>
</option>
</forwarding>
4) I've searched web thoroughly, read all the available docs and forum discussions, but haven't figured out what am I doing wrong.
Hope it can be fixed.
Afloat
Everything crashed. =)
My preferences for Safari zapped. =)
I've rebooted, reenabled Afloat - fruitlessly! and menubar started to blink.
I've decided to uninstall it, but haven't find the Uninstall option.
Guys, this is wrong. Please, help me with uninstallation and release stable version ASAP!
