Please test these experimental bundles that have tor-fw-helper included. You may know that flash proxy requires people to set up port forwarding (https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/FlashProxyHowto). tor-fw-helper is a tool that uses UPnP or NAT-PMP to forward a port automatically. I'm interested in finding out how likely it is to work.

The bundles are configured to run flash proxy and tor-fw-helper. You just have to click "Connect" and wait up to 60 seconds. You don't have to do any special tests; just see whether it bootstraps or not.
If you want to see more of what's going on, look at the file flashproxy-client.log that will be created inside the bundle. When tor-fw-helper fails, it looks like this:

This is the branch from which the bundles are built. The second link shows what's different in the branch relative to the TBB 3.5.2 release.
