If you're seeing this in your logs, DNS requests is being leaked. [warn] fetch_from_buf_socks(): Your application (using socks5 on port xxxxxx) is giving Tor only an IP address. Applications that do DNS resolves themselves may leak information. Consider using Socks4A (e.g. via privoxy or socat) instead.
