18)       The currrent version of Tor and the Vidalia Graphical Tor Controller
19)       support the ability to use any HTTP, HTTPS, or SOCKS proxy to get
20)       access to the Tor Network.  This means even if Tor is blocked by
21)       your local network, open proxies can be safely used to connect to
22)       the Tor Network and on to the uncensored Internet.  A caveat is that
23)       the open proxy host will see you are using Tor, but will not be able
24)       to any of your traffic as it is wrapped in layers of encryption.

28)       These steps assume you have a functional Tor/Vidalia configuration,
29)       and you have found a list of HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4, or SOCKS5 proxies.

31)       <li>Open the Vidalia Control Panel, click on Settings.</li>
32)       <li>Click Network.  Select "I use a proxy to access the Internet".</li>
33)       <li>On the Address line, enter the open proxy address.  This can be a hostname or IP Address.</li>
34)       <li>Enter the port for the proxy.</li>
35)       <li>Generally, you do not need a Username and Password.  If you do, enter the information in the proper fields.</li>
36)       <li>Choose the Type of proxy you are using, whether HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4, or SOCKS5.</li>
37)       <li>Push the Ok button.  Vidalia and Tor are now configured to use a proxy to access the rest of the Tor Network.</li>
