    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.
