#476 How to setup my Privoxy for TOR?

[Anonymous]

After installing Tor, you should install privoxy, which is a filtering web proxy that integrates well with Tor. Add the line

forward-socks4a / localhost:9050 .

(don't forget the dot) to privoxy's config file (you can just add it to the top). Then change your browser to http proxy at localhost port 8118.

-How do I do this? I want to be able to surf the Internet using proxies outside China, or at least allowing me to visit such websites as google.com, and others as here in China, it's been disallowed at times, filtered, blocked whatever you want to call it.

Since this program is English, I am doing my best to cope and understand, so if anyone can make it more simple, that is what steps are needed to acomplish the above task, I am eagerly awaiting your reply back!

Thank you!

Edit /etc/privoxy/config and put that line at the top.
