I am not new to TOR, but it has been a while since I used it, and it appears
from reading the few posts I've received so far, that it has changed
considerably since I last used it.

While I am knowledgeable about computers, the Internet (though not with some of
the newer stuff), and programming, I am not familiar with VPN services - I have
heard of them, but have not researched them.  By VMs I assume you mean virtual
machines, I have some experience in getting frustrated trying to set them up. ;)

Can anyone point me to some resources that will help to fill me in on the
changes, and on how to maximize security (anonymity), I would be grateful.

One thing I really liked about TOR, when I was using it was that the Internet
trackers couldn't trace me and bombard me with ads based on the sites I visited
(unless I opted in).
