 as i'm training peoples around the world, they all think the tbb is
 installz0red.  in fact, it is merely extracted. given this state of
 affairs, said global citizenry using tor expect that there is a shortcut
 in the menu, on the desktop, and an uninstall program. Through the wonders
 of windows 7 snipping tool, i have prepared such a screenshot showing you
 the 7zip extractor pretending to be an installation progress window.

 Due to the lack of shortcut, users do not know how to start tbb.  perhaps
 after extracting such a program, you could arrange for it to be started
 automatically.

 thank you kind sirs for the wonderous tbb, for it is truly a life saver
 for many.
