Comment:

 Replying to [ticket:2589 wrmweb]:
 > I'm a Torbutton newbie.  I just installed v.1.2.5 on an iMac running
 10.6.6 on Firefox 3.6.12, but when I run 'Test Settings' in Torbutton
 prefs, I get this warning: "[Javascript Application] Tor proxy test: Local
 HTTP Proxy is unreachable. Is Polipo running properly?"

 Upgrade to Firefox 3.6.13 for a security fix.

 > Also, I've disabled all other add-on's except Torbutton.

 Did you install Tor?  Torbutton does not include Tor; it requires that you
 install Tor separately.
