Problem with Privoxy and Tor
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?
