 My suggestion for the instructions email:

 Hello again!

 Thank you for your request.

 Here are the "requested-os" download links:

 Tor Browser Bundle:
 -------------------

 32bit - !https://link-to-dropbox-32bit (Download this one, if you're not
 sure)
 Signature: !https://link-to-dropbox-32bit.asc

 64bit - !https://link-to-dropbox-64bit
 Signature: !https://link-to-dropbox-64bit.asc

 Q: How do I run the Tor Browser Bundle?

 (if requested-os == "windows") Double click the package you downloaded,
 extract it to a location of your choosing, go to that location and you
 will find a folder called Tor Browser, inside it you can find the launcher
 "Start tor browser.exe".

 (if requested-os == "mac") extract the .zip file (should be in your
 Downloads folder), double click the .app file.

 (if requested-os == "Linux") torproject.org/linux-installation-manual

 Q: The green bar fails to complete to 100%, what should I do?

 You will need to add these bridges to be able to connect to the Tor
 network:

 - Open Vidalia control panel>Settings> (Check) "My ISP blocks connection
 to the Tor network".
 - Start adding bridges one by one (without the "bridge" word) :
     bridge !0.0.0.0:1234
     bridge !0.0.0.0:1234
 - Press OK> Restart Vidalia/Tor

 ===========================================
 #If all of the above fail do the following:
 ===========================================

 Pluggable Transport Bundle:
 ---------------------------

 !https://link-to-dropbox-PT-TBB
 Signature: !https://link-to-dropbox-PT-TBB.asc

 You may still need a few bridges to connect to Tor network:
 - Open Vidalia control panel>Settings> (Check) "My ISP blocks connection
 to the Tor network".
 - Start adding bridges one by one (without the "bridge" word) :
     bridge obfs2 !0.0.0.0:1234
     bridge obfs3 !0.0.0.0:1234
 - Press OK> Restart Vidalia/Tor

 To get more bridges, visit !https://bridges.torproject.org/bridges or
 simply send an email to bridges at torproject.org. Just make sure you have
 "Get bridges" in the body of your message.

 Verify Your Bundle:
 -------------------

 It is essential to check if you have downloaded the right version.

 This has been explained in step-by-step details in Tor Short-user-manual
 which is attached to this email.
