Yes, just set the SOCKS Proxy for QupZilla to 127.0.0. > A commenter on this forum suggested I check out QupZilla, and there are Could they be? My impression is that using Tor requires the ability to use SOCKS 5 proxies, which Mendeley can do but I imagine there's more to it than that.įinally, is there any reason Vidalia should be running after I kill my Tor browser? I quit the browser and the green onion stays in my system tray until I quit it too. I'm assuming that those communications are not being routed through the Tor network. But what happens locally? If Vidalia is running and my Tor browser says it's on the Tor network, is all other network traffic unaffected by Tor?įor example, I've been using Mendeley, a tool to organize reference libraries and PDFs. More generally, can someone explain what's happening when Tor is running on my computer? I understand about the network, the random path, the separate keys at each connection, and so on. Is it possible to set up QupZilla to browse through the Tor network? My Tor browser is running and Vidalia shows I'm connected to the Tor net.Ī commenter on this forum suggested I check out QupZilla, and there are definitely things to like about it. Most of my system is running well and I can do almost everything I need. I'm a recent convert to Triskel from Kubuntu.
