#424 WHO ARE YOU?

[Anonymous]

I don't know who you are or why you're suddenly
blocking my access to web pages. Clicking "disable
privoxy" doesn't do a thing. My ISP doesn't know who
you are. My IT guy doesn't know who you are. What's
going on?

http://privoxy.org. Somebody has installed us on your system
somewhere, I would guess. Does anyone else use your machine?

There is no program called "Privoxy" installed on my computer.
A search for the word "Privoxy" in all files and folders returns
no finds. So how has someone "installed" Privoxy and how can
I uninstall it?

If you go to http://p.p/ then the page you see
will start with "This is Priovoxy <version> on <host>".

You should contact the person responsible for
<host> in order to find out how and why they
are using Privoxy, and/or find out how and why
your computer uses <host> as a proxy
for web access. Talking to your IT guy again based
on that information should fix you.
