No but what about that project that is compact FF and TB by itself, out of
the context of Tor entirely? I don't even know if the developers of that
even know Tor exists. If I could remember what it's called, I could tell you
but I can't. I think they post updates on majorgeeks.com though.

Hello ADB,
Torpark IS the self-contained usb thing with Firefox and
Thunderbird,
at least thunderbird should be expected within the next few
months.
And the latest version was released less than a month ago I
believe.
I'm building another version very soon, if I can get some more
help
from programmers. I should also have a Tor firefox plugin available
in
the future as well.

thatself-contained,
'USB-stick' Thurnderbird and Firefox? I can't
think ofthe name right now. It
would probably be really easy for
Arrakis to addthis to his project. The one
thing that's nice about
VPM though is thatit is cross-platform and contains
a few extra
security features thatwould be hard for a non-geek to configure.
The
reason I say this isbecause there are many dedicated freedom
activists
in the US and aroundthe world that are just dying
(sometimes literally) for
something likethis, but don't have the
technical know-how to
self-implement.
Arrakis, do you need help with TorPark? If so, I'd be willing to chipin, at
least to a degree.
