@Alan: in dansguardian you have two options:

filterport = 8080

This is where dansguardian listens on, this you don't need to change when changing from tinyproxy to privoxy.

proxyport = 3128

This is the port where the "real" proxy listens on (like squid, tinyproxy, privoxy). This port you have to change to whatever port the proxy listens on. By default squid and tinyproxy listen on 3128, and privoxy (as far as I can tell) listens on 8118.

So after installing privoxy and checking if it runs (with something like: "netstat -nlp |grep 8118"), you should set dansguardian as follows (in /etc/dansguardian/dansguardian.conf):

filterport = 8080 (this remains unchanged, make sure you have this port set as proxy port in the browser)
proxyip = 127.0.0.1 (you can leave this as it is)
proxyport = 8118 (this is where privoxy listens)
