 There is currently no easy way for users to find and block misbehaving Tor
 relays. If you are using the Tor Browser and see something funny in one
 tab (say, SSL MITM), you will first need to figure out which circuit that
 maps to. Vidalia doesn't make this easy. Once you have the IP address of
 the relay, you will need to edit the Tor configuration file with the
 ExcludeNodes option and have Tor reload the config. Vidalia doesn't make
 this easy either.

 There should be an easy way to find and block misbehaving Tor relays,
 either with Vidalia or arm.
