Summary: remove 'go there anyway' link of Privoxy

Initial Comment:
hi , 

  I managed to install squid and privoxy and they work 
all right. But i have problem of removeing 
link of'go there anywhere'. I want to block ppl from 
access porn site but if they click on that link
, they can still access it which viod the whole 
purpose of blocking. I try to change the 
parameter 'pattern'
on set-image-block but still doesn't change anything.

  Can anyone give me a hand on this?

Agreed. Privoxy is not meant as a convience filter, not a policy filter. It is meant 
to filter out ads from a website much the same way a tool like SpamAssassin 
filters out your e-mail. It uses some sort of deterministic algorithm (except for 
the baysian filtering part; might be an interesting idea for privoxy too?) to 
determine it believes is or is not an ad. It doesn't work perfectly, so having a 
safety net is nice. In it's case, your mail is dropped into a different box. As a 
parallel, privoxy provides you with the option of visiting the site anyway. If you 
want to block porn sites outright, you will want something more akin to a 
firewall. Something that blocks things, and can not be disabled by a quick visit 
to the proxy settings. I'm not immediately aware of tool like that (although they 
certainly exist), but someone else here might be able to assist.

Use squid for porn blocking and let privoxy block the ads.
