I did those those irritating "ip warnig" pop-ups in a Windows 98 box with IE. Now I'm back to using debian-woody and I've installed privoxy.
Privoxy is the success to the Internet Junkbuster and I'm very happy with it, along with galeon and mozilla.
The less junk/java/java-script/shockwave non-sense (I could use foul language here), the better.
You can find privoxy on sourceforge.

Your information here is not totally correct. Any diesel motor can run on vegetable oil, any.
Dr. Diesel designed his motor to run on vegetable oil, that was the whole point of the design. After he died in 1913, his ideas were forgotten and sadly oil-diesel took over.
The problem is that you cannot *start* a diesel motor on vegetable oil. This is because the glow plug doesn't heat enough to do so. Modern diesel motors are designed to run on oil-diesel, not on vegetable oil or on biodiesel.
It was discovered in the 1970's, that if you make the vegetable oil thinner (biodiesel), the diesel motor can start (up to -20 C). This is a simple process.
On my 1987 Golf Diesel I did *no* modifications whatsoever, nothing and it's now done around 15,000 km on biodiesel.
What you mean by the "filters", this may be needed when you first use biodiesel after using oil-diesel for a long time. Biodiesel cleans the filth left by oil-diesel, that's why. A diesel motor running on biodiesel is very, very clean.
e.
these "ME's" don't know what they're talking about. Biodiesel burns much cleaner in the motor than oil-diesel. And it acts as a natural lubricant, which oil-diesel can do only with sulphur (which is an environmental disaster). Using sulphur in oil-diesel in now banned in Europe.
The record for a diesel motor going without any type of overhaul is over one million kilometres. Try that on a diesel motor using oil-diesel.
If you can about your motor, use biodiesel. If you can't get any biodiesel in your area, then at least mix the oil-diesel with at least 10 percent vegetable oil (if you use used-vegetable oil, make sure it's filtered TOTALLY, the diesel motor has zero tolerance to any food particles).
the main problem with biodiesel is that many people are afraid to use it -- many are simply afraid of the unknown.

The diesel engine is very efficient for a cheap engine. Dr. Diesel designed his motor to run on salad oil, not on the filthy oil-diesel.
Thus, the diesel motor is fine. it's the filthy oil-diesel which is not fine. I use biodiesel in the 1987 Golf Diesel.
With biodiesel you can cut pollution by up to 80 percent.

I drive a 1987 Golf diesel and for a while I have been only using biodiesel. The car runs much better on biodiesel than on the filthy oil-diesel.
Biodiesel is much better for the environment, the motor itself and for the public health of all. And the motor makes much less noise... the horrible diesel motor noise is a result of the horrible fuel (which is a waste product of "gasoline").
Biodiesel can cut pollution up to eighty percent compated to oil-diesel. We mustn't forget that Dr. Rudolph Diesel designed the diesel motor to run on vegetable oil and not on filthy oil products.
In German and Austria there are already 2000 service stations which sell biodiesel (www.biodiesel.de and www.biodiesel.at). Germany and Austria are serious about cutting CO2 levels.
Sadly, in the Netherlands where I live, the government and even the Dutch Green Party could care less about biodiesel.
