Default Re: Surf Anonymously: Tor, Privoxy, Firefox Problem

sounds like you have installed the things you need, check in yast2>System>System Services and make sure privoxyd and tor are enabled. Hopefully that will solve your problem. If not you will have to review the privoxy config file.

Note: version of tor prior to 0.2.0.34 need to be updated for security reasons. Torbutton extension from Mozilla facilitates use of tor and automatically makes adjustments to java/javascript rules that can leave you open to revealing your IP (recommended). Consider installing Tork (KDE3) even if you are using KDE4, it can give you control of your tor exit and entry points. Both current tor and Tork rpms are in the Build Service.
