Privoxy and Tor together keep you anonymous online with web-browsing, plus Privoxy keeps you safe by blocking out a bunch of nasty stuff.
banmicrosofttoo I followed these instructions, but still no luck. Works great with Firefox, but I can't connect to Limewire. In Limewire, I have the proxy set to use localhost on port 8118. That doesn't work. If fact, Privoxy doesn't even register a connection attempt. I can connect to Limewire using Tor, settings SOCKS, port 9050, but then the Tor window goes nuts, probably from all of the traffic, then shuts down.

Are any of you currently using Tor/Privoxy with Limewire? I have Limewire Pro 4.9.29. Any suggestions, helpful hints would be great.
