New description:

 The Torbutton error "Torbutton blocked changed-state history manipulation.
 This is to work around af
 irefox security bug.

 Hit enter in the location box or opena new window or tab instead." is
 scary and confusing.

 Suggested replacement:

 "Torbutton blocked changed-state history manipulation to protect your
 privacy. If you have windows or tabs which are suddenly empty, try hitting
 return in the address bar to restore the content.
 For more information, right-click on Torbutton in the status bar and
 select "Change state bug info."
