 Sorry about that -- I provided a bad fix.
 
 I should have put "/usr/local/sbin/privoxy
 /usr/local/etc/privoxy/config --pidfile /var/run/privoxy/privoxy.pid"
 in quotes when I ran my command line test, and I didn't notice that my
 "fix" ended up running Privoxy as root. Argh.
 
 Once I created directories /var/log/privoxy and /var/run/privoxy/
 owned by privoxy:privoxy, I had no trouble with the startup script.
 
 Thank you,
 
 Richard
