      Dear PF users,

      Well I have a working basic squid+squidguard config.

      I was a former IPcop user. As I remember correctly there was a very interesting feature yet primitif in a way, called privoxy.
      It could block Ads and hide other web junk content when browsing the net.

      I am looking for software for pfsense that can exactly do that.

      Apparently common installed packages used on the firewall do not provide that capability.

      Is that correct or am I mistaken?

      Thank you

        squidGuard + Shallalist blacklist allows you to block most ads.  squidGuard also has a Clean advertising checkbox that replaces blocked ads with a blank image.
