What does a red Tor icon in the status bar mean? This error (with the tooltip “External Tor proxy error: Connection refused”) occurs when you have configured an external proxy (or one was running previously), and Sparrow can no longer connect to it.

List last updated 03.08.2025 File host list Criteria for the file hosts: One must be able to consistently download from the file host directly on Tor with the "Safest" setting. One must be able to upload to the host either directly on Tor, Tor with JavaScript enabled, through a proxy or with a script.

Address : meth.cat Port : 6697 (with TLS) Channel : #autism If the address and port are required together: 'meth.cat/+6697'. How to Join (with Tor) Address : yz4tmh3kjcv5nkoqutwgehkmwsjfbhhooc3ldmsecvxxibff4xi652qd.onion Set up a SOCKS5 proxy, apply the proxy, and disable TLS authentication - it may look something like this: /proxy add tor socks5 127.0.0.1 9050 /set irc.server.methcat.proxy "tor"...

The following example for exiting through Russia will only work if... well, the Tor network has a Russian exit. Often this isn't the case. If Tor fails to bootstrap try dropping the line with 'ExitNodes': '{ru}' . Do not rely on the following not to leak.

As far as Privoxy is concerned, Tor is just another proxy that can be reached by socks4, socks4a and socks5. Most likely you are interested in Tor to increase your anonymity level, therefore you should use socks5, to make sure DNS requests are done through Tor and thus invisible to your local network.

But why no one forked Tor? It's probably because Firefox and its Gecko browser engine aren't dead yet, but it might be in the future, so it's probably a good idea to use Pale Moon as a replacement, especially with the Proxy Privacy Ruler , which allows for applying the proxy only for private windows and/or certain domains.

Without proxy: Origin -> layers of Tor relays -> Tor exit node -> Destination With proxy: Origin -> proxy -> layers of Tor relays -> Tor exit node -> Destination Here Origin -> Relays is transparently advertising itself as Tor and hence you need snowflake since Chinese network simply blocks Tor, but they possibly do it really badly...

Execute tor or systemctl start tor.service from the terminal to enable the Tor network. Start Gajim and click on Advanced Settings to enable the Tor proxy, setting the server to 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost and the port to 9050.

》 SOCKS 转 HTTP （如果你手头只有 HTTP proxy，但你使用的网络软件只支持 SOCKS 代理，就需要使用这种转换） 通过 Tor（或 Tor Browser） 来进行这种转换。“Tor 客户端”本身可以充当 SOCKS proxy，然后可以把数据转给别的 HTTP proxy。 关于 Tor 的详细教程，参见如下几篇： 《 “如何翻墙”系列：关于 Tor 的常见问题解答 》 《 “如何翻墙”系列：扫盲 Tor Browser 7.5——关于 meek 插件的配置、优化、原理 》 《 扫盲 Arm——Tor 的界面前端（替代已死亡的 Vidalia） 》 ◇端口转发（Port Forward） 本文后续部分会聊到“端口转发”这个招数。
