There seems to be a misconception on what Privoxy is and what it does for your anonymity and security.
Privoxy is a module that was used by Vidalia Tor to provide an extra layer of security when using the Tor network. In a similar manner to the TorButton I have seen reference to Privoxy as a security measure in its own right. Both of these are to be used in conjunction with Vidalia Tor.
In fact, I am of the opinion that Privoxy has been somewhat or actually replaced by "Bridging Servers".
