Tor Browser 4.0.7

Tor is a toolset for a wide range of organizations and people that want to improve their safety and security on the Internet. Using Tor can help you anonymize web browsing and publishing, instant messaging, IRC, SSH, and other applications that use the TCP protocol. Tor also provides a platform on which software developers can build new applications with built-in anonymity, safety, and privacy features. The Tor Browser Bundle lets you use Tor on Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux without needing to install any software. It can run off a USB flash drive, comes with a pre-configured web browser to protect your anonymity, and is self-contained.

Thanks to sternog for the update.

I installed Tor 4.0.7 and found that it retains the previous version name (Tor 4.0.6). After some investigation, I learned that this is a bug in the program.

Unfortunately, the 4.0.7 release has a bug that makes it think of itself as 4.0.6, causing an update loop.

This version mismatch will also cause the incremental update to 4.0.8 to fail to properly apply.

The browser will then download the full update at that point, which should succeed, but at the expense of both user delay and wasted Tor network bandwidth.

For this reason, we have decided to pull 4.0.7 from the website at the moment, and instead prepare 4.0.8 as soon as possible.

Thank you for your patience.

How do you uninstall Tor? I checked the FAQ, but couldn't find anything about uninstall. It doesn't show in "Add or Remove Programs" nor in "YourUninstaller", so I assume I can just delete the folder where it is installed...? :rolleyes:

Ignore my last post..I Googled the question (why didn't I think of that first?) and you just delete the folder where you installed Tor since Tor doesn't install in the same way as most other progs. Tor the God of Tunder? lol Noobs 1..the rest of the world 0 !!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
