Summary: Port Number 8118 changed back to 80?

Initial Comment:
Is there any way to keep the port 8118.  
I have sniffed out a http session using 
ethereal and noticed that the proxy changes the port 
back to 80. 
Thanks

Privoxy has never had a port 80 configuration. At one time
it was 8000, before the default was changed to 8118.
Something else is doing this.

The port setting is kept in a static configuration file.
There is nothing within Privoxy that could change this by
itself. I'd suggest seeing if some other process is
overwriting this file which might account for this.

Just an additional note on my issue. Reason I want the 
session to stay with port 8118 is because I am implementing 
a local firewall block port 80. Reason for the fire wall is 
because some users install firefox and bypass this proxy.

Perhaps someone has some alternative ideas. Thanks
Todd
