Puzzling behavior of Tor server.



Hi all.

I recently set-up a Tor server with an exit node on port 80 (WinXP
SP2).
When using either firefox or opera, I frequently see the following
entries in my log file:

Sep 04 03:12:21:890 [Notice] connection_ap_expire_beginning(): We tried
for 15 seconds to connect to '[scrubbed]' using exit 'bach'. Retrying
on a new circuit.

This makes logging out of Yahoo mail and other services difficult. Does
anyone have a suggestion?

My server configuration is:

accept * 80
accept 127.0.0.1 80

Thanks,

~Caitlin
