In theory could scoobynet be made available on port 443 (https??) and then wouldnt it be hard to tell what parts of the site we were looking at??

or would it create excessive load on the server and slow the site down??

SSL encryption places a very high load on Web Servers (I'm putting in 2 SSL accelerator cards for a client as we speak .....small world).

Typically a largish Intel box will only cope with 50-100 concurrent SSL sessions. SSL accelerators can do 4000 concurrent connections per card (or more).

was just thinking out loud of the big brother issues... my other option is to almost set a route on my machine for scoobynet... or spoof it to my home pc over port 443, and then kick it out at that end on port 80...

??

Find a proxy on the internet ? That would cover your tracks...

Unless of course you guys ever get round to buying Active Net Steward...

You could VPN to your home box and then use Terminal Services to start a web session outbound....bit complicated though

I use w3m, works quite well with scoobynet, credit to Simon for doing things right and using alt tags for the images. Members gallery is a bit boring though
