Nice program, but on intel is alittle unstable. Not sure what triggers it but suddenly the cpus will go 100% and it can't be communicated with - just force quit. How soon to a intel version?

I also use privoxy and many of the reasons outlined are still true.

I would add a few comments. First, the released version is PPC only. You can get an Intel version - setup DarwinPorts on the intel and there is a privoxy setup to install - it compiled well on mine and delivered an intel based version of the program. Stop the old version, delete or rename the old main app, copy the new one from under the /opt folder of DarwinPorts to the main installation and then, reset permissions, and start it back up. I haven't noticed a big difference in performance but I felt better ( :-) )

Now, one thing that has bothered me a for a long long time. I'm concerned about nepharious web traffic that virus or trojan-like. At the mild level it's adware which doesn't yet affect the Macs much and at the severe level it's the security updates we get. I thought it would be smart of Privoxy to actually scan incoming content with a formal virus scanner. I see evidence such a thing was actually suggested before the final release with a contribution someone offered - but it's nowhere to be found.

Some other schemes exist to do this, but most aren't Mac friendly, or mature, or easy or require a whole sale reconfig of your entire network, in order to use.

I think such an addition would be a very great thing. Apple's pretty much tossed sand in the faces of virus writters with their recent ad campaign....
