Thanks again, Small molecule of advice; if you bank online switch Privoxy off _for the domain_ used by the bank. To do this add the domain to the Exceptions in the Manual Proxy Configuration screen, and make sure that 'Only use proxy for entries in this list' is _unticked_ (a wonderful user interface - that actually means 'Do not use proxy for entries in this list' :) Both my banks (smile.co.uk and newcastle.co.uk) use all sorts of Javascript tricks, and I believe most banking sites are similar. Privoxy, I suppose, could be laboriously configured to _not_ filter the tricks that matter, but it's easier simply to turn it off. In N months I've come across no other sites that require Privoxy to be turned off.
