Hi,

When I logout of my yahoo mail account using Tor it jumps back to
the same page. I'm using firefox with Tor 0.1.2.14 (package, not
compiling) on Vista.  When I toggle torbutton I can logout OK.
Any ideas?

Thanks
Steve


Try adding these lines to your Privoxy default.action file - one of
them should fix your problem.

  ===== begin ======
{ -crunch-all-cookies -filter -fast-redirects -hide-referer
-kill-popups -prevent-compression }
.yahoo.com

{-fast-redirects}
.yahoo.com/.*done=http

{+fast-redirects{check-decoded-url} -block}
.*rd.yahoo.com/
rds.yahoo.com/
  ===== end ======
I don't remember ever having a problem logging out of Yahoo using a browser with javascript disabled. I did have a problem using Firefox with everything enabled... I think it was the .yahoo.com/.*done=http 
that fixed the logout problem - but I'm not sure so I included all of
my privoxy rules for yahoo.
