Help me understand tor with SSL?

[Martin Fick]

Hi,

After reading the docs I am very confused about how
tor/privoxy deals with https(SSL) connections.  It
sounds like if I use SSL that I will be basically
bypassing privoxy and therefor could leak personal
info?  So what is the alternative if I want to access
a web site that requires https for logging in
anonymously?

Also, what prevents tor users form being susceptible
to simple attacks where an html page embeds an image
that has an https url as its source effectively
bypassing any privacy?

-Martin
