+ Sometimes, overzealous Windows virus and spyware detectors trigger on

+ false positives â after all, the anti-virus and anti-spyware business is
+ just a guessing game anyway. You should contact your vendor and explain

- Tor relays hold many connections open at once. This is more intensive
- use than your cable modem (or other home router) would ever get normally.
- So if there are any bugs or instabilities, they might show up now.

- If your router keeps crashing, you've got two options. First, you should

- Google or your cable/router provider, or try the Tor IRC channel.

- Usually the firmware upgrade will fix it. If it doesn't, you will
- probably want to get a new (better) router.
