    Whoops! That'll teach me to read before I cut & paste. The
    last paragraph is what you do if you want your browser to talk
    DIRECTLY to Tor BYPASSING Privoxy. (Everything above the last
    paragraph is OK)

    For your browser to speak to Privoxy (which in turn speaks to
    Tor) you put 127.0.0.1 8118 in both the http and https fields
    under the connection settings in your browser (leaving the
    socks-related fields blank).
