   I think you're the one who thinks like "pizza sliced".  My question   
   had nothing to do with how to use Tor as a proxy. My question was   
   does the entry remailer read my IP if I use Tor, not "how" to use a   
   proxy, namely , Tor.

   Jeesh! How did you come to the conclusion I didn't understand how to   
   setup a proxy in QSL?   
      
   I'm deleting the rest of your post. It's all a complete and total   
   misunderstanding about what my question actually concerned.
