Along time ago, there was the - Internet Junkbuster, - by Anonymous Coders and Junkbusters - Corporation. This saved many users a lot of pain in the early days of - web advertising and user tracking.
But the web, its protocols and standards, and with it, the techniques for - forcing ads on users, give up autonomy over their browsing, and - for tracking them, keeps evolving. Unfortunately, the Internet - Junkbuster did not. Version 2.0.2, published in 1998, was - (and is) the last official - release - available from Junkbusters Corporation. - Fortunately, it had been released under the GNU - GPL, which allowed further - development by others.
So Stefan Waldherr started maintaining an - improved version of the - software, to which eventually a number of people contributed patches. - It could already replace banners with a transparent image, and had a first - version of pop-up killing, but it was still very closely based on the - original, with all its limitations, such as the lack of HTTP/1.1 support, - flexible per-site configuration, or content modification. The last release - from this effort was version 2.0.2-10, published in 2000.
Then, some - developers - picked up the thread, and started turning the software inside out, upside down, - and then reassembled it, adding many - new - features along the way.
The result of this is Privoxy, whose first - stable version, 3.0, was released August, 2002. -

Privoxy is based in part on code originally developed by Junkbusters + Corp. and Anonymous Coders.
+ +Privoxy heavily relies on Philip Hazel's PCRE.
+ +The code to filter compressed content makes use of zlib which is + written by Jean-loup Gailly and Mark Adler.
+ +On systems that lack snprintf(), Privoxy is using a version written + by Mark Martinec. On systems that lack strptime(), Privoxy is using the + one from the GNU C Library written by Ulrich Drepper.
