Yes, Oskar wins, because of the proxy thing. You should configure the
address of the node you're going to connect to. It's more of a pain than
just clicking on a link and people hate to configure things, and it will
raise the amount of knowledge needed to use Freenet from the level of my
mom to the level of my little sister, but I think it's a sensible thing to
do considering the possible bad side effects of not doing it this way.
