Yes I'm sure I do but I still don't know how!

If I change the port number from 8080 in netscape to 8000 then junkbuster does
work but, of course, wwwoffle doesn't.

I realise that the web pages are going to have to either be cached by wwwoffle
and passed through junkbuster to netscape or processed first by junkbuster then
passed on to wwwoffle for caching and thence to netscape.

My level of understanding of this particular process is that if I put 'localhost'
in one box and '8080' in another then wwwoffle caches my web pages for me.

I would like to continue using woffle and to use junkbuster in addition but the
instructions are going to have to be of the 'put this here' and 'put that there'
type I'm afraid.

Thanks for the reply.
