Any chance Bfilter will get support for basic authentication anytime soon? It would be much appreciated!

    I suppose you mean authentication to a remote proxy, right?
    Basic Authentication (where password is sent in clear text) is not hard to do. Unfortunately, these days I focus on another project, so new features for BFilter are waiting either for someone other than me to work on them (which is unlikely), or for me to switch my attention back to BFilter (which may eventually happen, but not too soon).

    So, I am leaving this feature request open for now.

    It should be very interesting to have basic authentication to intermediate proxy.
    This could permit the use of program that doesn't have this feature like "google updater" !

    It wuold be nice to have bfilter authenticating, I mean: a browser have to auth to access bfilter and make requests. I hope you'll be back on this project soon,mate!!

    No one was working on this project for quite some time. This project may be considered dead already. I just use AdBlock+ these days.
