This package contains a patch to the Linux 2.2.2 kernel that disables the CPU serial number misfeature in the new Intel Pentium III processor at boot time. Also included is a fairly comprehensive CPU identification program for Intel and AMD processors that will display the PIII serial number if it is available. Run it both before and after installing the patch to verify that it is working.
84ca90acfb5e5c63913608584782a111This package contains a daemon, written as a Perl script plus configuration file, that provides a simple HTTP router, banner advertisement blanker, cache and cookie cutter. You configure your web browser to use it as a web proxy. httproute relays user requests to a web proxy that depends on the URL prefix. If the URL prefix matches a configured list of known advertising servers, httproute answers the request itself with a 1x1 gif image of a black pixel, thus blanking banner ads and speeding page loading (especially on a slow line). httproute can be configured to route its requests to encrypted TCP tunnels established with ssh, making it possible to compress and encrypt some or all of your web traffic at least as far as the proxy server. httproute can strip and/or lie about information from your browser's requests that can potentially compromise your privacy, including the Referer: and User-Agent: options. It strips incoming cookies, except from sites explicitly listed in the configuration file.
