Kooks and their Kookies
I have just looked into my cookies file, and noticed an interesting kookie (pun intended): www.netscum.net FALSE / FALSE 123456789 visited the%20Home%20Page%2c%20Name%20Q.%20Deleted (Name Deleted is the name of one of the well known USENET personaes, and there is a number instead of 123456789). This is really interesting. If netscum.net ever comes up again, do not view it except through the anonymizer or the crowds, and filter out the kooks' kookies. - Igor.

You can find *most* of netscum at this URL: http://www.spambusters.dyn.ml.org/www.netscum.net/index.html It does do very interesting things with cookies. it also allows you to customize the typeface, the size, and the color of the text using the cookie. Be sure at least to watch the cookies coming in on this and any other site. Would there be any interest if I put an anootated netscape cookie file (cypherpunks cookie potluck) someplace like geocitie.com? Also a composite blockfile for junkbusters and other filtering proxies. A really neat feature for ad-filtering proxies would be to be able to place a specified picture (or at least a black rectangle) over a jpg or gif file being received from a URL that matches a specified pattern. I'm not sufficiently handy with graphics file formats to tell how easy this would be. --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps
