Sorry, Let me add in some details I have left out; -the proxy uses blacklists for flagging, it is really not fancy or up to date -the browser history shows sites "visited" - would prefetch do that? must research ....

Be aware that some sites categorize websites as "adult" using very unsophisticated mechanisms. John Dvorak's blog site is often categorized as "adult" because he has the word "uncensored" in the title. Sometimes they do it when a picture has a lot of flesh tones in a jpg. As for "traces", you can visit an "innocent" site that will re-direct you to an adult site (phishing). Also - some browsers will "pre-fetch" URL's without the user's knowledge. _______________________________________________ Pauldotcom mailing list Pauldotcom at mail.pauldotcom.com http://mail.pauldotcom.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pauldotcom Main Web Site: http://pauldotcom.com
