title: "SocketError: [Errno 61] Connection refused" Selenium with TOR
body: <p>So I was using TOR to act as a way of changing my proxies and ip addresses for my webdriver. Here is the code. All dependencies are installed (including Geckodriver and latest version of Firefox).</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-py prettyprint-override"><code>from stem import Signal
  from stem.control import Controller
  from selenium import webdriver
  from selenium.webdriver.firefox.options import Options
  from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
  
  def switchIP():
      with Controller.from_port(port = 9051) as controller:
          controller.authenticate()
          controller.signal(Signal.NEWNYM)
  
  
  def my_proxy(PROXY_HOST,PROXY_PORT):
      fp = webdriver.FirefoxProfile()
      fp.set_preference("network.proxy.type", 1)
      fp.set_preference("network.proxy.socks",PROXY_HOST)
      fp.set_preference("network.proxy.socks_port",int(PROXY_PORT))
      fp.update_preferences()
      options = Options()
      options.headless = True
      return webdriver.Firefox(options=options, firefox_profile=fp)
  
  for x in range(10):
      proxy = my_proxy("127.0.0.1", 9050)
      proxy.get("https://whatsmyip.com/")
      html = proxy.page_source
      soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
      print(soup.find("span", {"id": "ipv4"}))
      print(soup.find("span", {"id": "ipv6"}))
      switchIP()
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Thanks for the help,
  Aarav.</p>
