After installing Viadalia Fedora it seen that the proxy "127.0.0.1:8118" doestnot work
The main reason is that the proxy application polipo don't run automatically in Fedora.
Polipo has to be configured manually as follows:
1.Replace the content of file "/etc/polipo/config"  with this.

4.Add following line in the space provided
    /usr/bin/polipo
5.In Proxy Application Arguments: add following line
