 When I opened an old Tor Browser Alpha I had lying around (7.5a1), it told
 me two things:
 * Tor is not working in this browser
 * This browser is out of date

 Then it started downloading an update.

 This might not be a bug, but it made me very nervous to be downloading an
 update over what looked like an insecure connection.
