That's great information. It really is a tradeoff. One more piece of information: Dansguardian, against all reason and RFCs, assumes that HTTP headers are capitalized in a very pretty way. For example, it breaks if you say "host: www.mcnabbs.org" instead of "Host: www.mcnabbs.org". QT's HTTP libraries prefer lowercase and can have trouble with Dansguardian. Hopefully they'll fix this soon (I reported it as a bug, but who knows what that will do). -- Andrew McNabb http://www.mcnabbs.org/andrew/ PGP Fingerprint: 8A17 B57C 6879 1863 DE55 8012 AB4D 6098 8826 6868
