Hate to say this, but the FWproxy withing Freeweb is immune to this problem

Subject: [freenet-devl] Content filter vs unicode
The attached file (recently posted to bugtraq by "eDvice Security Services"
<support at edvicetech.com> as an exploit to another filter proxy) is picked up
by
fproxy's filter, but only the meta tag that sets the character set. This is
used
by, for example, the Freenet China News sites, though they use charset=gb2312
(and have hyperlinks; they are picked up on the content filter on both
counts).
Point is, any foreign language web page, even without hyperlinks, will trip
the
filter. Therefore foreign language freesite readers will turn off the content
filter. Isn't there some java support for this stuff? (finding which chars
could
correspond to an "<script" ?).
