First I tried without using the Tor/Privoxy combo.

java turned off
javascript turned off

http://www.stilllistener.com/checkpoint1/java - does not see my ip
http://whatismyip.com - sees my ip

java turned off
javascript turned on

http://www.stilllistener.com/checkpoint1/java - does not see my ip, but
sees lots of other interesting stuff about my pc

http://whatismyip.com - sees my ip

java turned on
javascript turned off

http://www.stilllistener.com/checkpoint1/java - sees my ip
http://whatismyip.com - sees my ip

Then I tried it with Tor/Privoxy running

javascript turned off
