I've been successful in Torifying mIRC from within SocksCap. It's
working for me. I use ZoneAlarm and only allow mIRC to have access to
127.0.0.1:9050. I don't allow it to have any other access or to act as
a server.

When I sniff my traffic with SmartSniff, I occasionally see my real IP
address being transmitted. Here's a sample>

GET /tor/server/d/..........................
HTTP/1.0
Host: 192.108.114.19:9030


HTTP/1.0 200 OK
Date: Thu, 17 May 2007 04:07:30 GMT
Content-Type: application/octet_stream
X-Your-Address-Is: xx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Content-Encoding: deflate
Pragma: no-cache


This is followed by the usual Tor encrypted gobbledy-gook. The
xx.xxx.xxx.xxx is my real IP. Am I correct in assuming that this
breaks anonymity, and this is something that Privoxy usually takes
care when you use Tor with a web browser.

If so, is there any way to take care of this?

B.O
