+Building Tor Browser.exe
+========================
+
+To build Tor Browser.exe, you need:
+ Vidalia (in ./release/ by default)
+ PortableTor (in ./PortableTor/ by default)
+ FirefoxPortable (in ./FirefoxPortable/ by default)
+
+Vidalia needs to have the BrowserExecutable option enabled (currently in
+trunk). Running "make build-release" will take the necessary files from the Qt
+and Vidalia build directories and put them into ./release.
+
+PortableTor can be downloaded from http://portabletor.sourceforge.net/
+
+FirefoxPortable can be downloaded from http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable
+
+Customization
+-------------
+
+The locations of Qt, MinGW32 and the Vidalia build directory (for "make
+build-release") can be altered in Makefile.
+
+The locations of 7zip, FirefoxPortable, PortableTor and the Vidalia release
+directory can be altered in buildpackage.py.

 - Use process monitor to watch filesystem activity:

+  [ Vidalia doesn't appear to alter the registry other than the RNG

 - If we can't make a static build of Vidalia, produce a small
   executable to launch Vidalia (so the top level folder doesn't have
   random DLLs lying around)
