Privoxy v3.0.21
OS X v10.6.8
SeaMonkey v2.17.1
I'm not having a problem with any particular site or URL.
I'm using the built-in firewall in OS X.
My SF login is freevito.

Privoxy was recommended by Paul Ducklin of Sophos Labs as a way of logging my browsing history outside of the browser for security. What I need to know is how to access my browsing history since I began using Privoxy. I have checked the User Manual and looked through the FAQs, but I found nothing that is immediately apparent as an answer to my question.

Thanks!

    Tracking browsing history is not Privoxy's primary purpose, however it could be achieved by enabling appropriate debug logging levels in the config file so as to log every request made. Please refer to the manual here (http://config.privoxy.org/user-manual/config.html#DEBUGGING) to learn how to enable logging; until this is done Privoxy will keep no record of requests made.
