 So I downloaded the Tor browser. When I open it up, Firefox says:

 {{{
 The proxy server is refusing connections.

 Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections.

  * Check the proxy settings to make sure that they are correct.
  * Contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is
 working.
 }}}
 When I click the Tor button and turn Tor off, however, I can access
 webpages. Of course, Tor isn't turned on.

 Here's my message log:
