Setting up Tor with Freecap and Proxomitron

[Kye-U]

FreeCap hasn't been updated since 1 year the original post was posted (wow, it's already been 4 years...)

Nice find! I'm going to give it a try sometime.

I will close this topic soon as it is quite out of date, and that Tor now bundles Privoxy (with Vidalia), which means that the other topic is sort of obsolete as well.

EDIT: Wow, I'm using Polipo right now (Proxomitron: changed remote proxy to 127.0.0.1:8123 (Polipo)), and it feels like my 10mbps connection has suddenly doubled. It's definitely faster than Privoxy.

EDIT 2: Useful link: http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/polipo/tor.html

My config file (so far):

Code:

# use tor
socksParentProxy = "localhost:9050"
socksProxyType = socks5
# don't cache to disk
diskCacheRoot = ""
# http header sanitization
censoredHeaders = from, accept-language, x-pad
censorReferer = maybe
# prevent possible security issue
disableLocalInterface=true
# speed tweak
serverSlots=2
serverMaxSlots=8

EDIT 3: Using Polipo as a hidden service with NT Wrapper Lite: http://www.duodata.de/ntwrapper/
