- (Vidalia) go?</a></h3>
-
- <p>Vidalia has been replaced with Tor Launcher, which is a Firefox
- extension that provides similar functionality. Unfortunately, circuit
- status reporting is still missing, but we are <a
- href="https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/8641";>working
- on providing it</a>. </p>
-
- <p>In the meantime, we are providing standalone Vidalia packages for
- people who still want the map. Windows and Linux versions are <a
- href="âhttps://people.torproject.org/~erinn/vidalia-standalone-bundles/";>
- available here</a>.
-
- <p>To use these packages, extract them, then run the startup script.
- On Windows, this is "Start Vidalia.exe". On Linux, it is start-vidalia.
- They can be placed in a different directory from TBB (and likely should
- be). </p>
-
- <p>This Vidalia package will only run properly if Tor Browser has already
- been launched. You cannot start it before launching Tor Browser. </p>
-
- <p>MacOS is still under development, but in the mean time you can modify
- your TBB 2.x to be a standalone Vidalia (and then use it after starting
- TBB 3.x) by opening your TBB 2.x vidalia.conf file in an editor and
- replacing its contents with just these lines:</p>
-
- <pre>
- [General]
- LanguageCode=en
-
- [Tor]
- ControlPort=9151
- TorExecutable=.
- Torrc=.
- DataDirectory=.
- AuthenticationMethod=cookie
- </pre>

- <a id="DisableJS"></a>
- <h3><a class="anchor" href="#DisableJS">How do I disable JavaScript?</a>
- </h3>
-
- <p>Alas, Mozilla decided to get rid of the config checkbox for JavaScript
- from earlier Firefox versions. And since TBB 3.5 is based on Firefox 24
- (FF17 is unmaintained), that means TBB 3.5 doesn't have the config
- checkbox anymore either, which is unfortunate.</p>
-
- <p>The simplest way to disable JavaScript in TBB 3.5 is to click on the
- Noscript "S" (between the green onion and the address bar), and select
- "Forbid scripts globally". Note that vanilla NoScript actually whitelists
- several domains even when you try to disable scripts globally, whereas
- Tor Browser's NoScript configuration disables all of them. </p>
-
- <p>The more klunky way to disable JavaScript is to go to about:config,
- find javascript.enabled, and set it to false.</p>
-
- <p>There is also a very simple addon available at addons.mozilla.org
- called QuickJS, which provides a toolbar toggle for the javascript.enabled
- about:config control. There are no configuration options for the addon,
- it just switches the javascript.enabled entry between true and false and
- provides a button for it. </p>
-
- <p>If you want to be extra safe, use both the about:config setting and
- NoScript. </p>
-
- <p>As for whether you should disable it or leave it enabled, that's <a
- href="https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq#TBBJavaScriptEnabled";>a
- tradeoff we leave to you</a>.</p>

- <a id="VerifyDownload"></a>
- <h3><a class="anchor" href="#VerifyDownload">How do I verify the download
- (sha256sums.txt)?</a></h3>
-
- <p>You can still verify your Tor Browser download by downloading the
- signature file (.asc) along with your package and <a
- href="https://www.torproject.org/docs/verifying-signatures.html.en";>
- checking the GPG signature</a> as before. We now have an additional
- verification method that allows you to verify the build as well as
- the download.</p>
-
- <ul>
- <li>Download the Tor Browser package, the sha256sums.txt file, and the
- sha256sums signature files. They can all be found in the same directory
- under <a href="https://www.torproject.org/dist/torbrowser/";>
- https://www.torproject.org/dist/torbrowser/</a>, for example in 3.5
- for TBB 3.5.</li>
- <li>Retrieve the signers' GPG keys. This can be done from the command
- line by entering something like
- <pre>gpg --keyserver keys.mozilla.org --recv-keys 0x29846B3C683686CC</pre>
- (This will bring you developer Mike Perry's public key. Other
- developers' key IDs can be found on
- <a href="https://www.torproject.org/docs/signing-keys.html.en";>this
- page</a>.)</li>
- <li>Verify the sha256sums.txt file by executing this command:
- <pre>gpg --verify <NAME OF THE SIGNATURE FILE>.asc sha256sums.txt</pre></li>
- <li>You should see a message like "Good signature from <DEVELOPER
- NAME>". If you don't, there is a problem. Try these steps again.</li>
- <li>Now you can take the sha256sum of the Tor Browser package. On
- Windows you can use the <a href="http://md5deep.sourceforge.net/";>
- hashdeep utility</a> and run
- <pre>C:\location\where\you\saved\hashdeep -c sha256sum <TOR BROWSER FILE NAME>.exe</pre>
- On Mac or Linux you can run <pre>sha256sum <TOR BROWSER FILE NAME>.zip</pre> or <pre>sha256sum <TOR BROWSER FILE NAME>.tar.gz</pre> without having to download a utility.</li>
- <li>You will see a string of letters and numbers.</li>
- <li>Open sha256sums.txt in a text editor.</li>
- <li>Locate the name of the Tor Browser file you downloaded.</li>
- <li>Compare the string of letters and numbers to the left of your
- filename with the string of letters and numbers that appeared
- on your command line. If they match, you've successfully verified the
- build.</li>
- </ul>
-
- <p><a href="https://github.com/isislovecruft/scripts/blob/master/verify-gitian-builder-signatures";>
- Scripts</a> to <a
- href="http://tor.stackexchange.com/questions/648/how-to-verify-tor-browser-bundle-tbb-3-x";>automate
- </a> these steps have been written, but to use them you will need to
- modify them yourself with the latest Tor Browser Bundle filename.</p>

- <h3><a class="anchor" href="#PluggableTransports">How do I use pluggable transports?</a></h3>
-
- <p>
- For now, the Pluggable Transports-capable TBB is still a separate
- unofficial package. Download them <a
- href="https://people.torproject.org/~dcf/pt-bundle/3.5-pt20131217/";>
- here</a>. We hope to have combined packages available in a beta soon.
- </p>
-
- <p>
- The separate Pluggable Transports-capable TBB is different from the
- Pluggable Transports bundles that have been released in the past.
- They include the programs necessary to use obfsproxy and flash proxy,
- but the pluggable transports are not enabled by default. You must
- enable them manually by adding Bridge lines to the torrc file.
- (Please see ticket <a
- href="https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/10418";>#10418</a>
- for how we hope to make it easier to do in the future.)
- </p>
-
- <p>
- To enable <b>obfsproxy</b>, edit the file called Data/Tor/torrc inside the
- bundle and add the lines:
- </p>

- <h3><a class="anchor" href="#NewIdentityClosingTabs">Why does "New
- Identity" close all my open tabs?</a></h3>
-
- <p>
- That's actually a feature, since it's discarding your application-level
- browser data too. But it sure is a surprising feature, for people who
- are used to Vidalia's "new identity" behavior.
- </p>
-
- <p>
- We're working on ways to make the behavior less surprising, e.g. a popup
- warning or auto restoring tabs. See ticket <a
- href="https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/9906";>#9906</a> and
- ticket <a href="https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/10400";>
- #10400</a> to follow progress there.
- </p>
-
- <p>
- In the mean time, you can get Vidalia's old "newnym" functionality by
- attaching a Vidalia to your TBB3.x. See the instructions above.

-
- <a id="ConfigureRelayOrBridge"></a>
- <h3><a class="anchor" href="#ConfigureRelayOrBridge">How do I configure Tor as a relay or bridge?</a></h3>
-
- <p>
- You've got three options.
- </p>
-
- <p>
- First (best option), if you're on Linux, you can install the system
- Tor package (e.g. apt-get install tor) and then set it up to be a relay
- (<a href="https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-relay-debian";>instructions</a>).
- You can then use TBB independent of that.
- </p>
-
- <p>
- Second (simpler option), if you're on Windows, you can fetch the separate
- "Vidalia relay bundle" or "Vidalia bridge bundle" from the download page
- and then use that (again you can use TBB independent of it).
- </p>
-
- <p>
- Third (complex option), you can either hook your Vidalia up to TBB (as
- described in the FAQ above) or edit your torrc file (in Data/Tor/torrc)
- directly to add the following lines:
- </p>
- <pre>
- ORPort 443
- Exitpolicy reject *:*
- BridgeRelay 1 # only add this line if you want to be a bridge
- </pre>
- <p>
- If you've installed <a
- href="https://www.torproject.org/projects/obfsproxy-debian-instructions.html.en#instructions";>Obfsproxy</a>,
- you'll need to add one more line:
- </p>
- <pre>
- ServerTransportPlugin obfs3 exec /usr/bin/obfsproxy managed
- </pre>
- <p>
- This third option is pretty klunky right now; see e.g. <a
- href="https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/10449";>this bug</a>;
- but we're hoping it will become an easy option in the future.
- </p>

-
- <a id="Timestamps"></a>
- <h3><a class="anchor" href="#Timestamps">Why are the file timestamps
- from 2000?</a></h3>
-
- <p>One of the huge new features in TBB 3.x is the "deterministic build"
- process, which allows many people to build the Tor Browser Bundle and
- verify that they all make exactly the same package. See Mike's <a
- href="https://blog.torproject.org/blog/deterministic-builds-part-one-cyberwar-and-global-compromise";>first
- blog</a> post for the motivation, and his <a
- href="https://blog.torproject.org/blog/deterministic-builds-part-two-technical-details";>second
- blog post</a> for the technical details of how we do it.
- </p>
-
- <p>Part of creating identical builds is having everybody use the same
- timestamp. Mike picked the beginning of 2000 for that time. The reason
- you might see 7pm in 1999 is because of time zones. </p>

+ href="https://www.torproject.org/docs/verifying-signatures.html.en";>
+ checking the GPG signature</a> as before. We now have an additional

+
+ <ul>
+ <li>Download the Tor Browser package, the sha256sums.txt file, and the

+ https://www.torproject.org/dist/torbrowser/</a>, for example in 3.5
+ for TBB 3.5.</li>
+ <li>Retrieve the signers' GPG keys. This can be done from the command

+ <h3><a class="anchor" href="#NewIdentityClosingTabs">Why does "New
+ Identity" close all my open tabs?</a></h3>
+
+ <p>
+ That's actually a feature, since it's discarding your application-level
+ browser data too. But it sure is a surprising feature, for people who
+ are used to Vidalia's "new identity" behavior.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ We're working on ways to make the behavior less surprising, e.g. a popup
+ warning or auto restoring tabs. See ticket <a
+ href="https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/9906";>#9906</a> and
+ ticket <a href="https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/10400";>
+ #10400</a> to follow progress there.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ In the mean time, you can get Vidalia's old "newnym" functionality by
+ attaching a Vidalia to your TBB3.x. See the instructions above.

+ <h3><a class="anchor" href="#ConfigureRelayOrBridge">How do I configure Tor as a relay or bridge?</a></h3>
+
+ <p>
+ You've got three options.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ First (best option), if you're on Linux, you can install the system
+ Tor package (e.g. apt-get install tor) and then set it up to be a relay
+ (<a href="https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-relay-debian";>instructions</a>).
+ You can then use TBB independent of that.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Second (simpler option), if you're on Windows, you can fetch the separate
+ "Vidalia relay bundle" or "Vidalia bridge bundle" from the download page
+ and then use that (again you can use TBB independent of it).
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Third (complex option), you can either hook your Vidalia up to TBB (as
+ described in the FAQ above) or edit your torrc file (in Data/Tor/torrc)
+ directly to add the following lines:
+ </p>
+ <pre>
+ ORPort 443
+ Exitpolicy reject *:*
+ BridgeRelay 1 # only add this line if you want to be a bridge
+ </pre>
+ <p>
+ If you've installed <a
+ href="https://www.torproject.org/projects/obfsproxy-debian-instructions.html.en#instructions";>Obfsproxy</a>,
+ you'll need to add one more line:
+ </p>
+ <pre>
+ ServerTransportPlugin obfs3 exec /usr/bin/obfsproxy managed
+ </pre>
+ <p>
+ This third option is pretty klunky right now; see e.g. <a
+ href="https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/10449";>this bug</a>;
+ but we're hoping it will become an easy option in the future.
+ </p>

+ <h3><a class="anchor" href="#Timestamps">Why are the file timestamps
+ from 2000?</a></h3>
+
+ <p>One of the huge new features in TBB 3.x is the "deterministic build"
+ process, which allows many people to build the Tor Browser Bundle and
+ verify that they all make exactly the same package. See Mike's <a
+ href="https://blog.torproject.org/blog/deterministic-builds-part-one-cyberwar-and-global-compromise";>first
+ blog</a> post for the motivation, and his <a
+ href="https://blog.torproject.org/blog/deterministic-builds-part-two-technical-details";>second
+ blog post</a> for the technical details of how we do it.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>Part of creating identical builds is having everybody use the same
+ timestamp. Mike picked the beginning of 2000 for that time. The reason
+ you might see 7pm in 1999 is because of time zones. </p>
