Thanks for pointing this out. Clicking on it seems to work on some
distributions and not others, but ideally it will work on all systems.
I've given myself a feature request bug (#1332) and will fix this in a
future version.

I've updated this in svn as well to reflect the current status. I will
note here, as well, that if anyone wants to help do security auditing I
am all ears. I am specifically interested in finding traces left behind
on Linux systems and though I have done some preliminary auditing and
not been able to find much, I'm sure there are plenty of people out
there who can help. So if you're reading this now, please contact me. :)

Thanks for mentioning this. I've updated this in svn and it will go out

Just wanted to point out that maybe the Tor volunteer page should be updated
to reflect the fact that this is a 'completed' project.  It's still listed
as a good coding project for Google's 2010 Summer of Code.  Maybe at the
very least change it to "working beta has been released" so that any
applicants considering it know what they'd be getting into.

Thanks for the Linux Browser Bundle goodness.

Tor Browser Bundle for GNU/Linux is now available for x86 and x86_64
architectures in 12 languages.

The Tor Browser Bundle lets you use Tor without needing to install any
software. It can run off a USB flash drive, comes with a pre-configured web
browser and is self-contained.

You can download it from the Tor Browser page which also has instructions about
how to extract and use it. http://www.torproject.org/torbrowser/


Hi,

Thanks for doing this.

The  fingerprints for your your signing keys seem to be missing from the 
"verifying signatures" page:


https://www.torproject.org/verifying-signatures

Also, on a minor housekeeping note, the link for "how to verify package 
signatures" on http://www.torproject.org/torbrowser/ points to an old 
page with a message that the page has moved.


Thanks again,

Jim

Yeah, this will make a fine addition to the beta TBB builds once it is
released. We will need help seeding it and the NoScript list most
likely.
 
Also, for those of you who want to try the NoScript config without
downloading the whole bundle, you can import it here:
https://svn.torproject.org/svn/torbrowser/trunk/build-scripts/config/noscriptconfig.json

Note that a couple bugs have been fixed for config importing in the noscript 
devel versions. You may want to consider using those too:

certlock add-on would be useful too... even better if seeded with
perspectives like validated cert details for the popular targets, like
those you listed above.

Works for me.

Check the md5 signatures of your files against the .sig file.

If that matches, make sure your version of tar is un-gzipping before 
un-tarring (try 'tar -xzvf FILE.gz', or 'gzip -dc FILE.gz | tar -xv')

I want to point out that this is the first bundle we are shipping with
NoScript and BetterPrivacy. We've decided to attempt this as a trial
in Linux TBB for a few reasons. After the remote font exploit of
Firefox 3.6 and the apparent ~2 month delay between exploit code and
fix, we've come to the conclusion that we need to do a bit more to
protect our users against Firefox 0day being held by the underground
and aboveground exploit markets. See:

http://hackademix.net/2010/03/24/why-noscript-blocks-web-fonts/
http://hackademix.net/2010/03/22/firefox-36s-0-day-and-you/
https://bugs.torproject.org/flyspray/index.php?do=details&id=1328

We also want to provide at least some way for people to view YouTube
videos and other flash content without completely sacrificing their
privacy and anonymity while viewing all websites. Our plan is to make
it so that people who insist on viewing flash content can simply
uncheck "Disable plugins for Tor usage", and only be at risk when they
actually decide to load a plugin (possibly GnashPlayer) by clicking on
its NoScript Placeholder. Basically, we would like to replace this
long FAQ entry with a much simpler one that still has an appropriate
warning: https://www.torproject.org/torbutton/faq.html.en#noflash

In addition, we've decided to try to deploy a list of popular sites
that have insecure https functionality that can be secured by
NoScript. Right now, we are attempting to secure *twitter.com
*facebook.com blog.torproject.org www.torproject.org docs.google.com
addons.mozilla.org www.stumbleupon.com. We are open to any suggestions
for additions to this list, and what we might do about any problems
that arise.

The Noscript config shipped with the bundle has the following
additional general properties:
  
1. It disables the redirect to noscript.net on updates.
2. It simplifies the context menu down to just enable/disable javascript 
3. It sets Javascript to be enabled by default.
4. It replaces most common media types and plugins with placeholders

We're open to any suggestions or comments about this approach. I am
also discussing usability issues with Giorgio to try to help make
NoScript a bit easier to use in general.
