Shut all down again, as above, & restarted FX, Tor w/ Polipo but Torbutton disabled - accessed site OK. Repeated shut down & clearing cache, Restarted Fx, Tor, Polipo & Torbutton - accessed site OK. Checked what IP address Tor exit node was using - diff, of course, from one shown above that was blocked. Seems site blocking access is related to specific IP addresses? There ARE no differences in setup of my Tor / Pol. / Torbutton today (when site access successful) as other day when blocked. One GOOD thing learned is by following all shutdown steps above, seemed to be able to stop same (old, incorrect) IP address being accessed / given to site. Other day, must've been something about sequence of shutdown / clearing cache that didn't clear the old IP address. UNKNOWN: When installed latest Vidalia bundle few days ago, did NOT check to see if Polipo was installed / running. My guess is it WAS, because today the reason I checked on Polipo is Fx would NOT connect w/o it. Common problem for many - get msg to effect, "firefox is refusing to connect... blah, blah." Getting Polipo started fixes this prob immediately. |
