Yes, pooling would help anonymize but with less and less users of Proxo (and I think most who do use it use your filters) well..... I hadn't thought about how the Google cookie could identify us to some extent since not that many use Proxo now.

That is so sad that there are less than 1000 users of your filters now...I may sound critical at times but I cannot fathom EVER doing without Proxo. It is the most important piece of software I have and I include your filters in that as I have no idea how to write my own filters, plus, I have used yours since JD5000 stopped offering public filters and yours are excellent.

I feel frustrated that I am unable to get most users to try Proxo. They miss so much by thinking it is too difficult, or they just don't understand the great benefits of using it (regardless of this string thing).

I wonder sometimes if it would have made any real difference if someone had been able to convince Scott's sister to give the code to a trusted person or entity ...at the time that would have probably been Paul Laudanski.
