Polipo is included (yet should not be?) in TBB 2.2.24-1 alpha (Windows)

Privoxy is included in TBB 2.2.24-1 alpha for Windows even though Privoxy is not needed. I tested setting TorButton to 'custom' with only SOCKS proxy set*, thus bypassing Privoxy, and TBB passed all 'Tor checks' (e.g., https://check.torproject.org). Using DNSEye there are no DNS leaks and I did not have any timeout erros when only using SOCKS proxy setting in Firefox.

Testing TBB 2.2.24-1 alpha (Firefox) page load speed with FireBug and HammerHead showed faster page load times without Privoxy vs with Privoxy for https://torproject.org, https://blog.torproject.org and http://kpvz7ki2v5agwt35.onion/wiki/index.php/Main_Page.

  • I added these lines to user.js:
user_pref("extensions.torbutton.http_port", 0);
user_pref("extensions.torbutton.http_proxy", );
user_pref("extensions.torbutton.https_port", 0);
user_pref("extensions.torbutton.https_proxy", );
user_pref("extensions.torbutton.socks_host", "127.0.0.1");
user_pref("extensions.torbutton.socks_port", 9050);
user_pref("extensions.torbutton.settings_method", "custom");
