The actual code for that haxxly doesn't do anything (well - it attempts to load jquery and sets the font tag to arial). Check out http://www.haxx.ly/h/28 for a quick example. The 406 is the view counter just reporting you've viewed the page. The script error was an error on that particular haxxly.

Out of curiosity, why do you use 406 for your view counter?

It's [406] "not acceptable" to register more than one view per haxx!

How do you intend to handle legal matters? News sites fiercely defend their content so if I make a haxxly of CNN news site and remove all ads would you be liable and forced to remove that haxxly site?

In this day and age there's nothing to stop people running Adblock if they really don't want to see ads. This would be easier in the longer term for the person anyway (haxxly proxying to CNN is slower than going to CNN directly w/ Adblock).

Regardless, I'll cross that bridge if/when it comes up. Site terms are here: http://www.haxx.ly/terms

If you wouldn't mind, please send me an email with your browser: mike@haxx.ly Thanks heaps!

It's the same for me, Firefox & Chrome (Ubuntu) :(

Google Chrome on Win 7, 64 bit - all pages report "not found". Also behind a companies squid proxy if that might have something to do with it.

Make it work please! It's cool idea, good for showing some design changes without having to change anything in the original page, not even a detection if someone wants to see the new preview etc.

In my case I am also running behind a Squid proxy, maybe it's what's wrong.
