I get a 404 error for some sites and don't totally understand why. I tried making a trust file (which worked) but then figured out that it excludes *everything* (except what is in the file) which is not what i wanted. I guess if there was a way (doable for newbies) to just have a list of domains that privoxy would skip that would be sufficent.

Cheers

Do you want to bypass privoxy for some sites? If so, you can tell Opera to
do this from "Tools...Preferences...Advanced...Proxy Servers" and enter the
sites for which you want to bypass privoxy in the "Do not use proxy for the
addresses below" field. Don't forget to tick the box to active the list.

Hi, I saw the follow up but it doesn't quite answer my question. The
followup mentioned firefox and IE and that one will only get 404s.

I mentioned i am using Opera 9.1, and i don't always get 404s, only on
some pages (which i listed). The "canned response" from fabiankeil seemed
to insinuate that i needed to give more information, i am not sure what
else you need but just mention it and i'll give it!

Cheers

3.06 does not work with Firefox 2.0 or Internet 7.0. Privoxy 3.03 works
with both.

All you get is 404s with either browser. 

I have installed/uninstalled 3.03 and 3.06 many times. Sames result 3.03
works, 3.06 doesn't work with TOR. All you get is 404 messages.
