If so, how can I do it? What i do is set up a tunnel in Putty like this: Configuration -> Connection -> ssh -> tunnels: Source Port: 9050 Destination: 127.0.0.1:9050 Press "Add" Don't forget to save the settings. In Firefox set the SOCKS-Proxy to 127.0.0.1, Port 9050. You can leave everything else blank. ADDITIONALLY you want to tell your Firefox to send DNS-lookups through the SOCKS-tunnel; open a tab, enter "about:config" as the URL, search for the key "network.proxy.socks_remote_dns" and set it to "true". > Thanks Alex. -- "I am tired of all this sort of thing called science here...
