I've been running junkbuster for a while and these javascript errors are due to the web page calling a blocked URL from inside javascript. This is no doubt because more people are using ad filtering proxies. At work I set up a similar proxy using apache/mod_perl and instead of a 404 for blocked ads I return ( if I recall correctly ) a 204 - no content. These seem to work better, though I haven't gone through the junkbuster code to see how I might change it. Steve
