Thanks for a detailed reply. > Firewall and filter are two things totally separated!
Sorry for being to general. I want to create a filter like dansgaurdian. I was thinking of it also as a firewall because is restricts traffic on a port based on content, but you're correct, they aren't the same thing at all. > Take a look at wipfw (wipfw.sf.net) that do what you want Thanks for the tip I'll check it out. > And for windows.

How ever I need to deploy this on M$win :( > win32COM for do what? My knowledge of COM is miniscule, but I assumed it has a low level interface for packet filtering. > You can do it in not so difficult manner: > Take twisted and its proxy class, make some outline code (for filter the > pages) and enjoy! (work also on win) Proxy would be an easy way, but I wanted to do it at a lower level. Thanks again. --matthew -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
