Hello, Pidgin 2.10.6 (libpurple 2.10.6) 4cfe697ea3ae39a4fb3dad8e3ed1c70855901095
I am trying to connect to Tor using Pidgin. I am having a connection issue. Of the three proxy options socks4, socks5, and tor/privacy(socks5), it seems I should be using tor/privacy(socks5). This issue has come up on some Tor lists. Can someone explain exactly what is the difference between Tor/Privacy Socks5, and just Socks5, and whether you believe Pidgin to preserve the anonymity? And also, my question as to why on my system, socks 5 works, but Tor/Privacy(Socks5) results in "SSL connection error" almost immediately (i.e. I don't think it is even making any network activity, it just immediately displays the SSL connect error. Setting "Socks5" works fine. Thanks _______________________________________________ Support@pidgin.im mailing list Want to unsubscribe? Use this link: http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support
