  • Uploaded about 1 year ago
  • Works with Songbird 0.4 - 1.7.0a

Version: 2.17

Download for All Platforms
  • Uploaded over 2 years ago
  • Works with Songbird 0.4 - 1.5a
  • DNS "leak" fix for SOCKS proxies. See the new checkbox in Proxy Settings: "Perform remote DNS lookups on hostnames loading through this proxy". This checkbox is now checked by default for new SOCKS proxies.
  • Menu colors (statusbar, toolbar, context-menu) now match customized proxy color
  • Copy Pattern button for easily copying patterns within the same proxy
  • Minor Add/Edit Proxy dialog bug fix
  • Animated FoxyProxy icon in About box (Thanks, Jesper!)
  • McAfee Site Advisor support. Discussed here.
  • Work towards re-enable proxies disabled by missing PAC but feature is not yet complete.
  • Width and height of main options dialog and proxy settings dialog remembered between opening/closing
  • Fixed bug which prevented the proper display of an error message to the user if he was using a PAC with a syntax error or other problems. Discussed here.
  • Proxy DNS column added to Proxies list in the main window and ChooseProxy window (displayed with Alt+F3)
  • Default display columns for new installations is now:
    Proxy list:
    • Enabled
    • Color
    • Proxy Name
    • Proxy Notes
    URLS Patterns list:
    • Enabled
    • Pattern Name
    • URL pattern
    • Whitelist/Blacklist
    Logging list:
    • Timestamp
    • Color
    • Proxy Name
    • URL
    • Pattern Name
    All other columns are still available but must be enabled explictly. The point is to enable less clutter by hiding by default lesser-important columns.
  • Tor wizard now uses remote DNS lookup by default instead of prompting the user
  • Warning about using parentheses without a backslash in patterns. Since backreferences aren't relevant in FoxyProxy, there's no point in using parentheses without matching them literally.

Version: 2.16.1

  • Uploaded over 2 years ago
  • Works with Songbird 0.4 - 1.5a
  • Fix for French which caused French installations of 2.16 to completely break
  • Locale updates
  • DNS lookups now fixed! Removed the Global Setting "Use SOCKS proxy for DNS lookups" and replaced it with a "Use this proxy for all DNS lookups" checkbox on each Proxy Settings dialog. However, only one proxy can be chosen for DNS lookups amongst all proxies. This is a Firefox limitation. See screenshot here and here.
  • Fixed "Cycle Through Modes" bug as described here.
  • Logging tab: moved "Open URL in New Tab", "Copy URL to Clipboard", and "Delete Selection" buttons above the log so the horizontal view of the log is maximized. Requested here.
  • Added proxy color to the logging tab
  • Fixed text-wrapping when resizing the "Choose Proxy" dialog (initiated from the Alt+F3 "QuickProxy" shortcut)
  • Proxy color now displayed when pressing the Alt+F3 "QuickProxy" shortcut
  • Fixed bug whereby some alert boxes weren't properly parented/owned. This led to some alerts not being properly modal with respect to the window/dialog that issued the alert.
  • Fixed various minor bugs with the Tor Wizard; also removed a step in the wizard
  • Locale upates
  • Vietnamese translation -- thanks loveleeyounga!
  • fr-FR locale changed to fr per BabelZilla

* Fixed bug preventing FoxyProxy from working in Slovakian. Discussed at http://foxyproxy.mozdev.org/drupal/content/foxyproxy-version-2814-dosnt-work-xml-parsing-error and http://foxyproxy.mozdev.org/drupal/content/getting-error-reading-string-resource-every-time-i-start-mozilla#comment-1424

  • Uploaded over 3 years ago
  • Works with Songbird 0.4 - 1.1.0pre

* Fixed bug whereby disabled plug-ins were enabled after Firefox is restarted
* Absolute filenames are no longer used to store the FoxyProxy settings file. Use of an absolute filename resulted in FoxyProxy settings not persisting (without a LOT of manual work) when moving Firefox profiles to another computer, restoration of Firefox profile backups to another hard drive, sharing of Firefox profiles across multi-boot computers (roaming profile), and when restoring profile backups using tools like FEBE, MozBackup, etc.
* GUI changes to warn users when moving the FoxyProxy settings file out of its default location (the Firefox profile)
* Overhaul of how FoxyProxy settings file handling is performed
* Fixed bug affecting corrupt or unreadable FoxyProxy settings file. A new foxyproxy.xml wasn't properly recreated and user wasn't being notified.

* Removed untranslated locales af-AZ (Afrikaans) and vi-VN (Vietnamese)
* Translation updates
