	If you are using the vidalia-tor bundle, Privoxy is already
	configured to forward to Tor for you.  If you know Terminal at
	all, run the following commands:

	"sudo /Library/StartupItems/Tor/Tor stop"
	"sudo /Library/StartupItems/Tor/Tor start"
	
	This will restart Tor completely.  If privoxy continues to
	return 503 errors, something else is broken in the pathway
	between Tor and Privoxy.  One interesting thing is that your
	"ps" output showed "Tor ControlPort 9051".  This isn't a standard
	Tor command line.

	The output of "ps auxwww | grep Tor" for a default Tor
	installation on OSX should show a Tor process as:
	/Library/Tor/tor -f /Library/Tor/torrc --runasdaemon 1 --pidfile
	/var/run/Tor.pid --datadirectory /Library/Tor/var/lib/tor --user
	_tor --group daemon --log notice file /var/log/tor/tor.log

	Are you on OSX x86 or PPC?  The 0.1.1.24 packages for OSX are
	fat binaries.  

	I'm happy to help out further.
