To Any Computer Experts Here - Can I Fix a "500 Internal Privoxy Error"?

[Seahunt]

SOS, wish I was but just not a computer guru here. I keep getting this new error message and don't know if it's something I can solve on my end:

500 Internal Privoxy Error
Privoxy encountered an error while processing your request:

Could not load template file connect-failed or one of its included components.

Please contact your proxy administrator.

If you are the proxy administrator, please put the required file(s)in the (confdir)/templates directory. The location of the (confdir) directory is specified in the main Privoxy config file. (It's typically the Privoxy install directory, or /etc/privoxy/).

If I reload (sometimes a couple times) the page will finally show up. It's aggravating to say the least (need to insert smilie showing beating computer with hammer LOL)

This recenty started. I am using AT&T MiFi with a wireless router on an older desktop (Vista) when this comes up. I don't remember seeing it when using my newer laptop (7). Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

500 Internal Server Error
A generic error message, given when no more specific message is suitable.

This is an error sent to your browser by a web server. Assuming this is a website, like DISBoards or something, it means there is something wrong with the website.

Before I posted my question I had googled it and all I saw was other people asking for help on what a "500 Internal Privoxy Error message" was

So thank you, it's nice to know what it is and for me not to try and fix it (which could be very dangerous in my hands)
