25 At present, <application>Privoxy</application> is known to run on
26 Windows 95 and later versions (98, ME, 2000, XP, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 10,
28 GNU/Linux (RedHat, SuSE, Debian, Fedora, Gentoo, Slackware and others),
29 Mac OS X (10.4 and upwards on PPC and Intel processors),
31 DragonFly, ElectroBSD, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD,
33 and various other flavors of Unix.
37 The binaries provided by members of the Privoxy team have the following
38 testing platforms, earliest supported OS versions and processor architectures. Be aware that down-level versions of Privoxy contain known security issues. <emphasis>It is preferable to build the latest code to target earlier OS releases than use an earlier Privoxy release</emphasis>:

87 Any operating system that runs TCP/IP, can conceivably take advantage of
88 <application>Privoxy</application> in a networked situation where
89 <application>Privoxy</application> would run as a server on a LAN gateway.

96 is always a possibility, as is compiling for older versions of supported
