High all. i am having an issue with my proxy server, anonymouse.org.

It seems when ever i post, it somehow asks the person who is viewing the thread, other then me, for a log on name and password.

Not sure if its only when im online, or it it happens always.

Not sure if it happens when i post a pic, or just a reply in a thread.

All i know is some people are scared when this window pops up. And that not my intentions at all.

The Vip version of anonymous is an add free proxy. So its not spam type shit..

Somehow it thinks the person is me and ask for a log on.



Any thoughts...

That doesn't make sense. AnonymouseWWW is a CGI based web proxy (like Anonymizer's free service used to be) and has no impact on other people's sessions.

The exception would be if multiple people sharing the same Anonymouse exit point were using icmag.com at the same time. Even then, your session is bound to your browser, so no inteference should occur.

I always use proxies to access icmag.com and have never encountered this behavior.

I suspect what is happening is your images or whatever you post into a thread as attachments require an authenticated session to view.

This is a feature, not a bug! Requiring an icmag.com login to access certain pics keeps them from getting cached by google and other web crawlers, and restricts viewing to members of this site.

Hope that helps!

See the thing is the images posted here are from my icmag album, and aer not attachments that would need to be opened.

I have since turned off these other functions on anonymouse when i log on lately. i shut off , allow cookies, browser infos, and reffering website. I have to re log on to icmag often now as it forgets who i am now.

would the brower info option allow something like before to happen, or the use cookies?

Images in your galleries work the same; you need a login by default to see them. There may be a way to make them public, but I'm not sure...

I'm not having any probs viewing your images.

If ppl have any problem viewing stuff on icmag they should tell their browsers to "trust" icmag.com, then it will allow all content.

Skip, u sent me a message 2 weeks ago about my posts causing issues. I have changed some settings on my proxy server and seems to have stopped the issues. remember the " VIP anonymouse.org " log on screen popping up? issues. people did complain.. A mod even deleted one of my earlier threads over in the hydro section.

It wasnt the viewers browser having security issues.

it wasn't a matter of having problems viewing my posts, the posts where there to read. but it would send the "VIP anonymouse.org log on screen" whenever people viewed my posts. It would ask them for a user name and password, when they entered the Log & pass incorrectly it would then direct there browser to the Anonymouse.org website and say log on error.

Now it remembers me as always, so i never see that vip log on screen. but the viewer of the thread it will pop up

it may only do it when im online using the proxy ? not sure??


very odd, i tried getting help from the proxy site and i haven't heard back.

But, it seems to not be bothering others since i took off all proxy site referring browser options.


Any more ideas guys???

Very strange; the only other cause I can think of is if Anonymouse.com was having CGI re-writing issues with URL's in post body content. This could cause the BB code you submit to be prefixed with an Anonymouse redirect prefix, and so all viewers would load images relative to their service.

Hard to know unless one of the threads back when it was a problem was still up and still doing it.

I'd like to know what it ends up being whenever you find out!

Your sig is rather large, stretching the screen...

still getting issues with your proxy asking for passwords

Wintermute, check out oldpinks link. apparently its causing issues there.

let us know, and btw, I checked, an there is no mention of the anonymouse.org in any of the picture url's. Unless theres something i missed.... which then is not obvious to me.
