Feb 20, 2009 firefox-showip issue 19 (DNS requests bypass socks proxies) commented on - Something related, Foxyproxy(https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2464) seems use something other than the network.proxy.socks_remote_dns config setting to do dns requests over socks. So, the leak occurs with it and perhaps other proxy management extensions.

Feb 18, 2009 firefox-showip issue 19 (DNS requests bypass socks proxies) commented on - That version works fine, doesn't leak DNS queries. The dialog seems sized right to me. I neglected to mention above I'm using SP1 of Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit. My Firefox version is 3.0.6 and the only other extension I was using was Torbutton.

Feb 17, 2009 firefox-showip issue 19 (DNS requests bypass socks proxies) reported - What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Use a packet sniffer like Wireshark to watch your DNS (udp.port == 53) connections 2. Change your Firefox network settings to use a socks proxy, something like tor with torbutton making it easier 3. Go to a site in your Firefox location bar that doesn't have its address cached What is the expected output? What do you see instead? The expected output in Wireshark would be no DNS requests, but they happen anyways. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? Version 0.8.14, Vista Home Premium 64 Please provide any additional information below. If this cannot be fixed a warning about using socks for DNS requests and privacy would be useful.
