[tor-talk] Inquiry about Vidalia/Tor bundle

[Missouri Anglers]

I downloaded and installed "PirateBrowser" which is a Firefox browser configured to use vidalia/tor.

I assume this is simply just a browser set up to use an anonymous proxy?

I am not exactly a beginner when it comes to using anonymous proxies.
I have been gathering proxy lists, scanning them with software to see if they are valid/anonymous and configuring my browser to use them for years. However I am no expert.

This Vidalia/Tor has me confused.
The program loads, connects to the Tor network and everything looks and acts well.
However when I check my stats at various websites that I use such as (http://www.lagado.com/proxy-test)
my IP address is revealed along with my ISP amd other accurate information.

I also checked https://check.torproject.org/ and it says that it is not working.

I am getting no errors. Everything seems to be working properly.
Maybe I am overlooking something simple? Maybe it is not what I thought it was?

Any help would be appreciated.
