Summary: Secure Windows Build

Initial Comment:
I dont know if this is the correct place for this, but... 

I was wondering if anyone has a secure windows build. What do i mean by secure? Good question.

I read that if you want to get rid of the "go there anyway" link and not have any workarounds... then you need to create a secure build using "./configure  --disable-toggle  --disable-editor  --disable-force".

Im a windows developer-hack typed person and found it really difficult to try and rebuild the source period... let alone trying to use "./configure  --disable-toggle  --disable-editor  --disable-force". =)

So that led me to try here. I would really like a rebuild of the source that used "./configure  --disable-toggle  --disable-editor  --disable-force" and was for windows.

Does anyone out there have one or know where i can get one?

Thanks icmp30. I don't have a machine setup to compile in or for windows
right now. A CVS build is always appreciated.

It was built using
./configure --enable-mingw32 --disable-toggle --disable-editor
--disable-force
from the current cvs sources.

Yeah i had witnessed how easy it was to get around the url blocking.

Does anyone have an estimate on when a secure windows build would be
available.

It wouldn't be difficult at all and such an option
has been in CVS for several month now.

Like dimethicone, I wouldn't recommend simply
hiding the URLs either, unless it doesn't really
matter whether or not the blocks are enforced.

You could edit the templates, but I'd assume that if a user put in the
right URL, they'd still get the result they wanted. IOW that's obfuscation,
not security.

It would be best if Privoxy had these options as configurable after
compilation, in config.txt. I'm not sure how difficult that would be.

You could simply alter the templates to remove the option, I believe that
would work.  It is commented with this tag:
<!-- @if-force-support-start --> \
    or <a href="http://@hostport@@force-prefix@@path@">go there
anyway</a>. \
<!-- if-force-support-end@ --> \
This is within /program files/privoxy/templates/blocked, it is there 3
times.


You could also make your own custom template if you need to customize
further.
