webwasher and xfree


Hi there...
I am using cygwin and XFree on a win xp machine. I really am enjoying it normally. But the moment I start the webfiltering programm webwasher, everything under X runs really slowly, which is quite unnerving, because especially if I´m online (the moment the webwasher comes useful) I use X-forwarding to access a remote machine. It has nothing got to do with my computer, because all other windows-processes keep up working fine and there is also enough memory and power left. As webwasher works as a proxy-engine, it might be, that X and the webwasher are using some same port. I already changed the port webwasher is using from 8080 to 80, but that did not work, so my idea might or better seems to be wrong.


Has anybody got any suggestions, what I could do?

Thanks a lot (, I am bloody stupid regarding X,)
Kai.

P.S.: I tried twm and fvwm as windowmanagers which did not change the slow X ...
