My suggestions as a no-tech user:<br><br>Perhaps the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Warning</span> should be put on top of the page, before the download links - sometimes people don't go further than the download links.<br><br>Also, might I suggest NoScript to be used in conjunction with QuickJava? And please add a line reminding users to<span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"> </span></span>reload the page if they use QuickJava. NoScript reloads automatically but not QuickJava.<br><br>About the evil exit nodes, these extensions might help detect false pages: HostIP.Geolocation plugin, netcrafttoolbar, FormFox, and Shazou. FormFox is somewhat paranoid and not always accurate, but it serves as a reminder of thinking before clicking "submit".<br><br>About mail client: I configure my Thunderbird 995 and 465, same server name for pop and smtp, with Torbutton. So far I have had no problem retrieving and sending. There have been mentions in this list
about problems with smtp, so maybe I am missing something. Am I blithely assuming my getting and sending mail through tor and SSL?<br><br>About Windows (sorry guys) security, set up a normal user account for browsing, like they do in Linux. Change Administrator to some other moniker and set a password. And disable remote administration if you don't need this enabled.<br><br>Voila, my 2centsworth.<br><br><br><b><i>Roger Dingledine <arma@mit.edu></i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> On Wed, Mar 07, 2007 at 02:14:33PM -0600, Mike Perry wrote:<br>> The Tor download page should have a concice "Things to know before<br>> downloading" section that lists a few key points about the most easy<br>> ways your identity can be revealed through Tor.
