Cybersecurity

Greetings,

I use Debian Wheezy as an OS and I have already downloaded the Tor Browser-Bundle, which works fine.

As soon as a start privoxy and set the proxy to: 127.0.0.1:8118 (socks4) in the tor browser (edit-->pref-->advanced-->settings--->http-proxy) I always get a connection refused. I did everything that I can find on the privoxy troubleshooting page, but it won't help.

I added this line to the /etc/privoxy/config to chain privoxy to tor, doesn't work either.

forward-socks4a / 127.0.0.1:9050 .

tried this too

forward-socks5 / 127.0.0.1:9050 .

I mostly get the message "refused by proxy server" when connecting to a website like google or something.

anyone have a suggestion what could be wrong?

You can test tor with any socks5 capable browser, to eliminate it as the problem. The socks5 line is textbook-right if it matches your tor port.
