Hey, you're paying more in Freedom, man. And that shit don't come
cheap.

Alright alright,

Who planted the *$%@ spider-repellant in Freenet?

Namely, the [EMAIL PROTECTED] file, configured to exclude everything?

 Can you put something in Fproxy that will make my cute
little favicon.ico work?

 Damn, that's a good idea. I wish I'd thought of that.

 It's coded into FProxy. I put it there because people were having
 problems with spiders overloading their nodes.

Understood and respected, as per IRC discussion.

It's a mystery to me how roving web spiders found people's fproxy ports to
begin with. Perhaps from the 'Referrer' fields in web server logs?

I've worked around this restriction by hardwiring FwProxy to 404 on any hit
to robots.txt.
BTW, I use a personal spider to crawl some of the freesites, to enable me to
surf them faster.

Cheers
David

 No. If scientists had invented it, they'd have tried it out first on
hamsters.
