 I am trying to use TOR at my school, which has a corporate firewall. Using
 tor on its own did not work, and gave me the following error:

 "getsockname() to check for address change failed: Invalid argument
 [WSAEINVAL]"

 I tried ticking the box "my firewall only lets me connect to certain
 ports", but the same error popped up.

 Finally, I tried to use TOR bridges. The same error message popped up in
 the log. Tor stalled at "bootstrapped 90%".

 Interestingly enough, TOR works perfectly at home. I have turned off
 Windows Firewall and my AV (at school) with no luck.

 I have a screenshot of trying to connect to TOR (through wifi) using
 public bridges, which I will try to upload.
