actually i like how middle-man.sf.net does it very much.
too bad i'm stuck with windowz. so wanna find alternative.

nice feature that i like to see:
- caching
- dns caching
- block content using DNS blacklist services
- prefetch
all the things that can accelerate browsing...

    I do not have intentions or resources to implement caching.
    There are plenty caching proxies out there (not to mention
    the internal browser cache). An example squid caching proxy
    configuration is included in the WebCleaner source.

    DNS caching is already done (look at
    wc.proxy.dns_lookups.DnsCache).

    DNS blacklists are automatically downloaded from various
    places and updated with each release. See config/bl2wc.py.
    If you know other blacklists I can use, please tell me. I
    would be happy to include them in the script.

    Without caching, prefetching is also a no-go. I suggest
    using Mozilla or Firefox, they both support prefetching.

    Since you did not have any more questions, I assume my
    previous message helped you. Thanks for the report.
