Summary: Should we block *.ivwbox.de ?

Initial Comment:
Various German sites (e.g. Heise, Spiegel online) have references to content on *.ivwbox.de (e.g. on heise.ivwbox.de, spiegel.ivwbox.de). Some internet research yields that ivwbox.de is commonly considered a tracking site. So I wonder why there is no default action in Privoxy to block this. I did so on my local system and could see no negative effects. There is even a significant speed improvement when browsing such sites using .ivwbox.de.

Thanks for the report.

I'll add .ivwbox.de to the block section once the CVS server is available
again.
