 A forensic analysis of the Tor Browser Bundle (version 2.3.25-6, 64-bit)
 on OS X 10.8 showed that the preference files contain traces of the Tor
 Browser Bundle.

 OS X applications store preference settings in plist files, and the files
 below are related to system fonts, the file manager, recent items, and the
 Tor Browser Bundle. These files contain traces of the Tor Browser Bundle
 and the attached external drive.

  * /Users/runa/Library/Preferences/com.apple.ATS.plist
  * /Users/runa/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
  * /Users/runa/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist
  * /Users/runa/Library/Preferences/org.mozilla.torbrowser.plist
