PHP through TOR and Privoxy

TOR and Privoxy can be used through PHP to enhance the privacy of your connection. First you need to setup and run both TOR (check /etc/torrc) and Privoxy (/etc/privoxy/config, then start it as a service). If something does not work, use wget or see the error log. The PHP code below get a page through TOR network. <?php $vOpts = array('http'=>array( 'method'=>"GET", 'request_fulluri'=>TRUE, 'proxy'=>'tcp://127.0.0.1:8118', 'header'=>"User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5\r\n"."Accept-language: en\r\n"."\r\n" )); $vContext = stream_context_create($vOpts); $vFile = file_get_contents("http://serifos.eecs.harvard.edu/cgi-bin/ipaddr.pl?tor=1",FALSE,$vContext); var_dump($vOpts,$vFile); ?>
