If I have time today, yes. There is a wiki entry stating those need to be set to break. I was referring to the fact it is suggested is set those so they'll break, I wasn't specifically referring to TorButton. > The relevant parts of the documentation that > I'm aware of recommend to set the gopher and > ftp proxy settings to Privoxy, to make sure > those requests fail instead of bypassing Tor: Maybe I was overly harsh then, I can see where the confusion may came from if someone read these sections. If one thought you _had_ to follow the old directions above then yes, it would seem like TorButton is mis-configured. > If the Tor button extension would indeed > remove these settings permanently, I'd consider > JT's concerns valid. TorButton handles these correctly and does not route them into Privoxy, it just breaks them with a zero port...which is what was recommended by the Tor devs. when Scott Squires when building TorButton (as far I as remember). There is no need set those up to go into Privoxy if the port is zero. Regards ____________________________________________________________________________________ Expecting?
