+
+What I don't understand, is how I can browser edit the config file as a
+regular user, while the whole /etc/junkbuster hierarchy belongs to the user
+"junkbuster", with only 644 perms.
+
+
+When you use the browser-based editor, JunkBuster itself is writing to the
+config files. Because JunkBuster is running as the user "junkbuster", it can
+update the config files.
+
+
+If you don't like this, setting "enable-edit-actions 0" in the config file
+will disable the browser-based editor. If you're that paranoid, you should
+also consider setting "enable-remote-toggle 0" to prevent browser-based
+enabling/disabling of JunkBuster.

Misc
+I noticed considerable
+delays in page requests compared to the old IJB. What's wrong?
+
+Using the default filtering configuration, I noticed considerable delays in
+page requests compared to the old IJB. Loading pages with large contents
+seemed to take forever, then suddenly delivering all the content at once.
+
+
+The whole content must be loaded in order to filter, and nothing is is
+sent to the browser during this time. The loading time does not really
+change in real numbers, but the feeling is different, because most
+browsers are able to start rendering incomplete content, giving the
+user a feeling of "it works".
+
+
+To modify the content of a page (i.e. make frames resizeable again, etc.) and
+not just replace ads, the Internet Junkbuster needs to download the entire
+page first, do its content magic and then send the page to the browser.
+
+
+
+
+What is the "http://i.j.b/"?
+
+Since JunkBuster sits between your web browser and the Internet, it can be
+programmed to handle certain pages specially.
+
+
+
+With recent versions of JunkBuster (version 2.9.x), you can get some
+information about JunkBuster and change some settings by going to
+http://i.j.b/ or, equivalently, http://ijbswa.sourceforge.net/config/
+(Note that i.j.b is far easier to type but may not work in some
+configurations).
+
+
+
+These pages are *not* forwarded to a server on the internet - instead they are
+handled by a special web server which is built in to JunkBuster.
+
+
+
+If you are not running JunkBuster, then http://i.j.b/ will fail, and
+http://ijbswa.sourceforge.net/config/ will return a web page telling you
+you're not running JunkBuster.
+
+
+
+If you have version 2.0.2, then the equivalent is
+http://example.com/show-proxy-args (but you get far less information, and you
+should really consider upgrading to 2.9.x).
+
+
+

+I get the message 'Bad File Descriptor', why?

+How do I chain Junkbuster with other proxies
+(e.g. squid)?
+
+ Fillme.
+
+
+
+I would like to help you, what do I do?
+
+ Well, helping the team is always a good idea. We welcome new developers,
+ RPM gurus or documentation makers. Simply get an account on sourceforge.net
+ and mail your id to the developer mailing list. Once we have added you to
+ the team, you'll have write access to the CVS repository, and we'll find a
+ suitable task for you together.
+
+
+
+Do you still maintain the blocklists?
+
+ No. The format of the blocklists has changed significantly in the versions
+ 2.9.x. Once we have released the new version, there will again be
+ blocklists that you can update automatically.
+
+
+
+How can I submit new ads?
+
+ As of now, please discontinue to submit new ad blocking infos. Once we
+ have released the new version, there will again be a form on the website,
+ which you can use to contribute new ads.

How can I hide my IP address?
You cannot hide your IP address with Junkbuster.
