I don't remember installing OpenSSL on Windows XP home edition. Yet TOR
008 works fine! Maybe it uses Windows native crypto facilities instead..

Well, privoxy hides things like which browser you use and it makes sure
the DNS requests go through TOR (a DNS request is used to translated an
internet address or URL to an IP address, it can't be a good thing if
your ISP sees which IP's you request DNS entries from or if the local
DNS server at the site you visit translates the URL for you (not sure if
this is how DNS servers work, but they could IMHO)).

| 	I'm sure that more questions will follow.  Thanks.

Questions is what this group needs!

Hope it helps you get anonymous,
