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.
-
+ </para>
+ <para>
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.
-
+ </para>
+ <para>
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.
-
+ </para>
+ <para>
Note that normally only local users can connect to JunkBuster, so this is not
(normally) a security problem.
</para>
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.
-
+ </para>
+<para>
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".
-
+ </para>
+<para>
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.
<para>
Since JunkBuster sits between your web browser and the Internet, it can be
programmed to handle certain pages specially.
+</para>
+<para>
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).
+</para>
+<para>
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.
+</para>
+<para>
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.
+</para>
+<para>
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).

Make sure that the bug has not already been submitted. Please try to
verify that it is a <application>Junkbuster</application> bug, and not
a browser or site bug first. If you are using your own custom configuration,
please try the stock configs to see if the problem is a configuration
related bug. And if not using the latest development snapshot, please
-try the latest one. Or even better, CVS sources.
