Networking :: Leaky Dillo?
Was working with DSL to check its suitability for secure browsing, and discovered a disconcerting, borderline deal-breaking occurrence: Dillo leaks reverse-DNS info. With the Tor/Privoxy extension running, showmyip.com will verify that Dillo is running an onioned ip. However, at shieldsup! it very blithely reveals the true IP address via reverse-DNS. Is there any way to close this hole? I liked Dillo initially because I thought it would be more privacy friendly, but this has made me reconsider. Ideas?

Did you set up dillo to use the proxy?
Got rc.firewall running?
Yes on both counts. Dillo is configured to use Tor/Privoxy, as I mentioned, and in showmyip.com indicates the use of a tor router. Only at shieldsup! does it reveal the actual IP. Stumped, hoping I am missing something obvious. Thanks.

Dillo is an abandoned project, but I think there are some updates after the DSL version....
