Summary: disable force in compile only

Initial Comment:
I'm baffled - is it true the only way to disable the option to force a 
"Go there anyway" link on blocked pages is to recompile with the  --
disable-force flag?

Why oh why isn't this in the config file?

The OS X Binaries were done so well, lets hope they compile easily.

Hey Guys,
   Just take a look in the \templates\ folder of privoxy and you can edit out the HTML generation code for the blocking pages, you could completely recode this and add you local insignia too if that helps.  It's not a secure way to block someone who knows privoxy from maually typing in the block URL, but good luck to them if they wish to go that far.

   This is when platform independant, the template files can be copied to a commissioned *nix service from a development winblows machine.

   Take a backup first.

   Privoxy is intended to aid in users opening up an internet connection, rather than lock it down hard.... but it can be used rather effectively for an open access portal access point when behind a HTTPS proxy.  This way you are not giving out a username and password for them, you just blanket add a header, much more worthy of privoxy's intended use.
