 Using Windows 7, 64 bit
 Just installed Torbrowser 8.0.3

 I just upgraded from one of the version 7's.  That one seemed to work
 pretty well.

 The new look of the version 8 takes some getting used to, but it does have
 some bugs.

 For one, it keeps hanging.  I can't get anything done.  The windows keep
 "not responding".

 Also, the torbutton blends too much, it's not green anymore, it was easier
 to see before if you needed to change to a new circuit.  Also, it does not
 show the current circuit so you need to make a new circuit for a page, you
 can't tell if it actually changed to a new circuit or not.  I noted before
 that there were times when trying to change to a new circuit, it would not
 always give a new circuit, or I would keep getting the same entry or exit
 nodes.  Being able to see that would tell me which nodes to exclude in
 torrc, so it would run better next time.  So that was very useful, I
 thought.

 But regardless, it's useless to me right now because right from the start,
 it just keeps hanging, the windows keep "not responding".

 The version 7 worked much better by comparison, so I will have to be
 switching back since this version 8.0.3 isn't working at all for me, I
 can't get anything done.

 Please advise when those bugs are fixed.

 Thank you very much.
