Big thanks to Philip Pearce for his great work, many fixes and enhancements specially about SSLMITM

Some things to be aware of :

  • createlistcachefiles now defaults to off (Considered like useless)
  • new sslsiteregexplist added (optional)
  • new option textmimetypes (eg: Filtering content of JavaScript and JSON )
  • search term logic changed so banned_search_override works with both search block list and with weighted search term.
  • SSLMITM Upgrade sha1 to sha256
  • new namesuffix option - one log file by instance (syslog) -

And more ...
