 I just tested the Linux FF4 TBB.

  * HTTPS Everywhere is not installed (I was able to browse to
 http://eff.org/ and http://panopticlick.eff.org/ without being redirected
 to HTTPS).
  * Torbutton is not installed (its configuration variable
 `extensions.torbutton.loglevel` did not exist, and creating that variable,
 setting it to `1`, and browsing did not produce Torbutton-related messages
 in the âError Consoleâ; also, I set `extensions.torbutton.proxies_applied`
 to `false`, and it remained `false` after I closed Firefox and reopened
 it).
  * Panopticlick was able to start a Java applet using a Java runtime that
 Firefox somehow found on my computer.
