Yes, if you set them back to what it was before you set them up for, then it will just connect normally, ignoring tor. If you have firefox, you should get switchproxyOriginally Posted by RamsesXIII

It allows you to easily switch between proxy settings instead of typing every one in for each protocol, so with one click you can switch between using tor as a proxy and having no proxy, depending on what you're doing. If you use IE, then you should get firefox anyway.
"it won't load the page if I turn TOR off"
If you just turn tor off, then your browser is still trying to connect through tor, but of course tor is not running so nothing will happen, you need to set your proxy settings back to what they were before to make it back to normal.
"I need my ip to stay the same sometimes for people to connect to a server I run."
Your ip never changes, you are just using other ips (the tor network) to carry out all your requests and them transmit back to you, you are still at the same ip. You should not use tor as a proxy for all your server's traffic (whatever the server's for), people run tor servers giving away their bandwidth and they get angry when someone uses it for bittorrent or for online gaming, you really don't need to use it for that. So basically just turn off tor and privoxy and put any settings back to normal for whatever program you are using tor with and everything will be back to what it was before, but your ip doesn't change when using tor, remember that, you are just using another ip.
