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?

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....
