I'm trying to use a proxy but to no avail. I changed the configuration in "Network Proxy" application and it didn't work. Then I added

Code:
export http_proxy=http://proxy:port
to /etc/bash.bashrc and it didn't work. However when I change my proxy settings within Seamonkey it works. But I'm trying to get it working with another application. I even tried tor + tork and tor + privoxy + vidalia but they all let me down.

Is there a way to this?
