Hi I'm running IE 11 through burp suite but in conjunction with the TOR browser and keep getting the following error message - I'm sorry I'm new to pentesting so hope you could advise: Error SOCKS server general failure.

Hi Tom Thanks for your message. Have you configured TOR as a SOCKS proxy? If so, you should change your configuration and use Burp's upstream proxy settings: - https://support.portswigger.net/customer/en/portal/articles/2363078-burp-suite-options-upstream-proxy-servers Please let us know if you need any further assistance.
