 https://gitweb.torproject.org/torbutton.git/tree/README
 has the very first FAQ entry of "I can't click on links or hit reload
 after I toggle Tor! Why?"

 and at the very end it says
 {{{
    There is currently one known unfixed security issue with Torbutton: it
 is
    possible to unmask the javascript hooks that wrap the Date object to
    conceal your timezone in Firefox 2, and the timezone masking code does
 not
    work at all on Firefox 3.
 }}}
 and I bet a lot of the stuff in the middle is obsolete now too.
