We also need a user.js suitable for Freenet. That means we need the connection settings changes that we recommend in the README, we need javascript, java, and loading images from foreign servers turned off, and any other obvious security options. And *maybe*, depending on whether users want to be able to visit sites from freenet after going through the confirm dialog, we want to set fproxy as a proxy. The profile works with firefox on any platform? And it will never be auto-selected on a launch of firefox without passing it in, even if it was the last profile used? > > Nogaso -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
