Blow away the obsolete docs.
Leave shells of them in case people link to them from elsewhere.

The first step is to set up web browsing.</p> - -<p>If you're using Firefox (we recommend it), check out our <a -href="tor-switchproxy.html">Tor SwitchProxy howto</a> to set up -a plugin that makes it easy to switch between using Tor and using a -direct connection.</p> - -<p>Otherwise, you need to manually configure your browser to HTTP proxy -at localhost port 8118. -(That's where Privoxy listens.) -In Mozilla, this is in Edit|Preferences|Advanced|Proxies. -In Opera 7.5x it's Tools|Preferences|Network|Proxy servers. -In IE, it's Tools|Internet Options|Connections|LAN Settings|Advanced. -You should click the "use the same proxy server for all protocols" -button; but see <a -href="http://wiki.noreply.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ#FtpProxy">this -note</a> about Tor and ftp proxies. -In IE, this looks something like:</p> - -<img alt="Proxy settings in IE" -src="http://tor.eff.org/img/screenshot-win32-ie-proxies.jpg" /> - -<p>Using Privoxy is <strong>necessary</strong> because <a -href="http://wiki.noreply.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ#SOCKSAndDNS">browsers -leak your DNS requests when they use a SOCKS proxy directly</a>, which -is bad for your anonymity. Privoxy also removes certain dangerous -headers from your web requests, and blocks obnoxious ad sites like -Doubleclick.</p> - -<p>To Torify other applications that support HTTP proxies, just -point them at Privoxy (that is, localhost port 8118). To use SOCKS -directly (for instant messaging, Jabber, IRC, etc), you can point -your application directly at Tor (localhost port 9050), but see <a -href="http://wiki.noreply.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ#SOCKSAndDNS">this -FAQ entry</a> for why this may be dangerous. For applications -that support neither SOCKS nor HTTP, take a look at <a -href="http://www.socks.permeo.com/Download/SocksCapDownload/index.asp">SocksCap</a> or -<a href="http://www.freecap.ru/eng/">FreeCap</a>. -(FreeCap is free software; SocksCap is proprietary.)</p> - -<p>For information on how to Torify other applications, check out the -<a href="http://wiki.noreply.org/wiki/TheOnionRouter/TorifyHOWTO">Torify -HOWTO</a>. -</p> - -<hr /> -<a id="verify"></a> -<h2><a class="anchor" href="#verify">Step Three: Make sure it's working</a></h2> -<br /> - -<p> -Check to see that Privoxy and TorCP are running and that TorCP has -successfully started Tor. Privoxy's icon is a green or blue circle with a "P" -in it, and TorCP uses a fat grey onion with a green checkmark in your -system notification area, as shown below: -</p> - -<img alt="TorCP Tray Icon" -src="http://tor.eff.org/img/screenshot-win32-torcp.png"> - -<p> -Next, you should try using your browser with Tor and make -sure that your IP address is being anonymized. Click on the <a -href="http://serifos.eecs.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/ipaddr.pl?tor=1">Tor -detector</a> and see whether it thinks you're using Tor or not. -(If that site is down, see <a -href="http://wiki.noreply.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ#IsMyConnectionPrivate">this -FAQ entry</a> for more suggestions on how to test your Tor.) -</p> - -<p>If you have a personal firewall that limits your computer's -ability to connect to itself, be sure to allow connections from -your local applications to local port 8118 and port 9050. If -your firewall blocks outgoing connections, punch a hole so -it can connect to at least TCP ports 80 and 443, and then see <a -href="http://wiki.noreply.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ#FirewalledClient">this -FAQ entry</a>. -</p> - -<p>If it's still not working, look at <a -href="http://wiki.noreply.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ#ItDoesntWork">this -FAQ entry</a> for hints.</p> - -<hr /> -<a id="server"></a> -<h2><a class="anchor" href="#server">Step Four: Configure it as a server</a></h2> -<br /> - -<p>The Tor network relies on volunteers to donate bandwidth. The more -people who run servers, the faster the Tor network will be. If you have -at least 20 kilobytes/s each way, please help out Tor by configuring your -Tor to be a server too. We have many features that make Tor servers easy -and convenient, including rate limiting for bandwidth, exit policies so -you can limit your exposure to abuse complaints, and support for dynamic -IP addresses.</p> - -<p>Having servers in many different places on the Internet is what -makes Tor users secure. <a -href="http://wiki.noreply.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ#ServerAnonymity">You -may also get stronger anonymity yourself</a>, -since remote sites can't know whether connections originated at your -computer or were relayed from others.</p> - -<p>Read more at our <a href="tor-doc-server.html">Configuring a server</a> -guide.</p> - -<hr /> - -<p>If you have suggestions for improving this document, please post -them on <a href="http://bugs.noreply.org/tor">our bugtracker</a> in the -website category.
