Below is a -screenshot of the setup page: -</p> - -<img alt="tor installer splash page" -src="http://tor.eff.org/img/screenshot-osx-installer-splash.png" -border="1"> - -<p> -By default, Tor is configured to run at startup. If you do not want Tor to -run on startup, you can disable this by selecting "Customize" in the -Installer, and then un-checking the "Tor Startup Script" box. Be sure to -leave the other boxes checked. -</p> - -<p>Once the installer is finished and your computer restarts, Tor will -start automatically. Tor comes configured as a client by default. It -uses a built-in default configuration file in <tt>/Library/Tor/torrc</tt>, -but most people won't need to change any of the settings. Tor is now -installed.</p> - -<p>Privoxy is installed as part of the Tor bundle package -installer. Privoxy is a filtering web proxy that integrates well with -Tor. Once it's installed, it will start automatically when your computer -is restarted. -</p> - -<p>You do not need to configure Privoxy to use Tor. A custom Privoxy -configuration for Tor has been installed as part of the installer package. -</p> - -<hr /> -<a id="using"></a> -<h2><a class="anchor" href="#using">Step Two: Configure your applications to use Tor</a></h2> -<br /> - -<p>After installing Tor and Privoxy, you need to configure your -applications to use them. 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 Mozilla|Preferences|Advanced|Proxies. -You should set both your Web Proxy (HTTP) and your Secure Web Proxy -(HTTPS or SSL) to localhost port 8118, to hide your SSL traffic too. -You should consider configuring your "FTP Proxy" too; see <a -href="http://wiki.noreply.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ#FtpProxy">this -note</a> about Tor and ftp proxies. +href="http://tor.eff.org/documentation.html">Tor documentation</a> page. </p> -<p>If you want to use Tor with Safari, you need to change your -Network Settings. Select your Network Preferences from the Apple | -Location menu:</p> - -<img alt="Network settings" -src="http://tor.eff.org/img/screenshot-osx-choose-network.png" -border="1"> - -<p>Select the Network Interface on which you want to enable Tor.

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.taiyo.co.jp/~gotoh/ssh/connect.html">connect</a> or -<a href="http://www.dest-unreach.org/socat/">socat</a>.</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> -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.

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 /> -<a id="uninstall"></a> -<h2><a class="anchor" href="#uninstall">How To Uninstall Tor and Privoxy</a></h2> -<br /> - -<p>The Tor 0.1.0.x series does not come with an uninstaller; this feature - will be added in the 0.1.1.x series.
