F.A.Q.

Q: Which search engines does Spacilus work with?

A: Currently only Google is supported and only at the following domains:
  • www.google.com
  • www.google.co.uk
  • www.google.de
  • www.google.fr

Q: Is Spacilus Spyware?

A: Definitely Not! Spacilus neither transmits any of your personal data nor any information about your web browser usage from your computer.

Q: Does Spacilus work with Mono?/Does Spacilus work on other Platforms than Windows?

A: No, not yet. The support of other platforms than Microsoft Windows, namely Linux and Mac OS X, depends on Spacilus working on the Mono framework. Therefore, creating a Mono-compatible version of Spacilus is very high on our todo list!

Q: Is the order of Googles search results changed in anyway?

A: No, Spacilus does not modify (resort or suppress) Googles search results in any way.

Q: My personal firewall tells me that Spacilus wants to access the internet! Why?

A: Because that's how Spacilus works. Spacilus acts a web proxy server: Every internet request of your web browser first goes through Spacilus before it goes to the internet. When this behavior is observed by personal firewall products - like MacAfee personal firwall, ZoneLabs or others - they will inform you about Spacilus trying to access the internet.
Important: In order for Spacilus to work properly, you must grant Spacilus access to the internet!

Q: I installed Spacilus but nothing changed when I use Google!

A: Most likely, you did not complete the installation by following these steps.

Q: After I uninstalled Spacilus, my web browser stopped working! I am unable to open any website!

A: You definitely did not complete the uninstallation by following these steps.
