#650 503 Connect Failed error

[Davo52]

I've just downloaded Firefox and Privoxy 3.0.3

I've added the line forward-socks4a /
127.0.0.1:9050 . to the Privoxy config.txt file and
set the connection settings in Firefox to be on
127.0.0.1 on port 8118 for everything except the
Socks Host.

And yes I have added an exception in the Windows
Firewall for Privoxy!

Everytime Firefox starts I get a 503 Connect Failed:

Connect failed

Your request for http://blah.blah.net/ could not be
fulfilled, because the connection to blah.blah.net
(127.0.0.1) could not be established.

This is often a temporary failure, so you might just
try again.

Thanks

Are you trying to build a proxy chain with tor?

Otherwise you don't need to modify config.txt.

Yes thanks Fabian,

No I'm not tangling with TOR just yet, all I wanted was
Privoxy and Firefox. And you're right once I went toa bog
standard config it worked fine.
Thanks
