Hi,
The (Amnesic) Incognito Live System, version 0.6.2, is out.
This is a bugfix-only release mainly aimed at fixing serious security
issues in bundled software. All users must upgrade as soon as possible.
What is it?
===========
T(A)ILS is a Live system aimed at preserving your privacy and
anonymity:
- all outgoing connections to the Internet are forced to go through
the Tor network;
- no trace is left on local storage devices unless explicitly asked.
Homepage: https://amnesia.boum.org/
Get it, try it, share it!
=========================
Try it! [1] Any comments are most welcome. Please note you'll need to
install the CACert root certificate [2] into your web browser before
connecting to our web site... unless you use Debian.

What's new?
===========
- Tor 0.2.1.29: resolves a bug that probably allows remote code
execution; see the Tor project blog post [3] for details.
- Kernel bump to Debian squeeze's 2.6.32-30 (fixes several CVEs [4])
- Other software upgrades fix grave bugs, some of these with serious
security implications.
- Upgrade Claws Mail to 3.7.6 (new backport).
- Install Liferea, tcpdump and tcpflow.
- Seahorse: use hkp:// transport as it does not support hkps://.
- FireGPG: use hkps:// to connect to the configured keyserver.
See the online Changelog [5] for more details.
