By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Screenshot of proxy error

When I use Tork to run Konqueror in Tor mode, Konqueror opens with the URL "http://healthcheck.anonymityanywhere.com/" then displays an error message complaining about my proxy configuration (see screenshot).

However, when I ask Google what my IP address is, it displays an IP address completely different. Also, web sites load in Konqueror with the sort of speed/latency I'd expect from Tor, and Konqueror is able to browse .onion URLs. I can also see that my proxy settings for Konqueror are changed.

If I tell Tork to turn off Tor mode for Konqueror, my browsing speeds return to normal, my proxy settings return to using a direct connection, Konqueror reports an "unknown host" for any .onion URL (even ones I know are working), and Google reports my actual IP address.

The proxy error is probably from the URL Tork tries to send me to when it puts Konqueror in Tor mode. If so, and if the TDE devs can't do anything about the website's proxy settings, I see a few possible solutions:

1. Remove the URL and simply open Konqueror with a blank page
2. Create a replacement hosted by the TDE project
3. Create a page built in to either Konqueror or Tork
