I didn't configure polipo. I just installed it as a part of the vidalia bundle. For me I can only use tor as administrator. When I try to enable tor as a user I get: The proxy server is refusing connections Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections. * Check the proxy settings to make sure that they are correct. * Contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is working. Ok, if I change torbutton to point to 127.0.0.1 port 8123 the page loads but when I goto https://check.torproject.org I get Sorry. You are not using Tor. Odd.
