  • Minimized the need for updating the whole profile if there are changes in the extension
  • included several new warnings which may be disabled by the user:
  • update warnings (if the user has to update/enable the profile or some other extensions (NoScript, SafeCache))
  • preference warnings (in case the user modifies the recommended prefs and thus is not surfing securely anymore)
  • proxy warnings (if the user is not using a proper configured proxy or no proxy at all for her surfing)
  • 'Benutzerdefiniert' or 'Custom Proxy' is now shown in red letters as well if there is, despite its appearance, no properly configured proxy in use
  • The user may change the UA if she configures a custom proxy (not faked, the Tor-UA, JonDo-UA). If there is no proxy in use, the unfaked UA is sent if Tor the Tor one and if JonDo the JonDo UA
  • Improvement of the download of files without using a proxy (via the context menu). Now the user can be redirected to an other location and the download is not done using the Mix-cascades.
  • Warnings if the downloads files which may be opened by external apps
  • Prohibiting the option of opening files automatically with an external app
  • Improved the Custom Proxy dialog. It works now like the proxy settings panel in Firefox (remembering old values if the box 'Use settings for all protocols' is checked...)
  • If there is no appropriate Custom Proxy set but nevertheless used it is not possible to download files via the context menu: the bypassing proxy option is deactivated

Location Neutrality:

  • Preference for setting 'accept charsets' to 'text/html,application/xml,*/*'; this was necessary due to some yahoo pages which do not work with '*/*' anymore

Minor improvements:

  • Copied a icon in the root directory of the extension (icon.png) thus the JonDoFox icon is still shown even if the extension is disabled (Feature of Firefox 3.6)
  • modified a misleading log message in jondofox-gui.js
