foxyproxy THESE FORUMS ARE CLOSED. NEW FORUMS AT FORUMS.GETFOXYPROXY.ORG

I have been using FoxyProxy in conjunction with SSH port forwarding by typing in a shell:
ssh -D <port> <remote-host>
and then setting FoxyProxy to use localhost:9999 as a SOCKS proxy.

Since I updated to FoxyProxy 2.22.4, the above procedure no longer works. When I try to load a page, the shell freezes and I get a connection timeout in Firefox.

If I set the SOCKS proxy directly in Firefox Edit>Preferences>Advanced>Network (NOT using FoxyProxy), there are no problems and the connection works perfectly.

I tried removing the entire .mozilla/firefox/ directory and reinstalling and reconfiguring FoxyProxy, but the problem persists.

Firefox 3.6.13/Linux
