Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Sorry for my delay, I had to ask the network administrator: the logs and
 cache contain an entry for `aus1.torproject.org`.

 A deactivation of the extension imply the warning "something is not
 working", surfing is impossible (connection refused). Same goes for
 manually tweaking the conf.

 Would a stack trace be helpful (provided it's gonna happen again)?
