I think, the problem is, that novadays more and more "evil"
sites use https to protect their evil jscode and cookies
from proxy servers.
Since https requests can not be filtered, Privoxy is
useless if you ever click on a https link!
No, that is not a bug, but it is a lack of usability.
What is Privoxy good for, if you just need to use https to
get all the referer and cookies and make the boring ads
displayed again (and the webbugs too)?
There should be an option to use Privoxy to intercept https:
1. Privoxy could act as the server and the browser will get
a secure connection to the proxy insteed of the original
server.
2. Privoxy decrypts the request from the Browser and makes
a new https request to the original server.
3. Privoxy receives the content from the original server,
decrypts and filters ist - then it encrypts it for the
browser.
4. The browser displays the "washed" page.
Sure, the browser will issue warnings about not matching
certificates - but who cares, if i haveto click once more
to be safe?

HTTPS pages are encrypted with SSL/TLS between the client
(browser) and the server and therefore cannot be filtered by
the proxy.
Logged In: NO
I think you are looking for the config option to allow
CONNECT method for SSL to ports other than :443.

This sentence does not make sense in English. Could you

http://www.nome domino.com:8443 is not correct. Also, please
give your OS and browser versions (firefox, ie, etc).
