I'd like to use the tor network when I'm connected to insecure (wireless) networks. This works great for my browser (opera), but some programs don't support a proxy server (like the messenger I use). Is there some (free) program that allows me to run Mercury (the msn messenger I use) through the proxy (127.0.0.1:8118) ?
Or does somebody know if this is possible with Privoxy (the proxy server (?) that comes with the tor bundle) ? |

Either goes to Control Panel\Internet Setting or inside IE, Tools\Option. Then goto Connection->LAN Setting. There you can enable proxy and configure your proxy server. Most application will go through here for their proxy configuration. |
