If somebody would verify the bug and figure out how to reproduce it
reliably, that would be grand.

Thanks,

Faraz, posted a reply from the fasterfox team.

Were the circuits to destinations somewhat related to this 'fasterfox'?

Resend: fastestfox and too many connections

2010-04-02 Thread M



 Original Message 
2 Questions:

- Does anyone know where the addon "fastestfox" compromises anonymity?
When i type anything in the address bar, it seems to do some type of
search and a dropdown list appears with choices. Will this "search" be
obeying TOR settings?

- Yesterday i opened the network map and it showed that TOR had created
like over a hundred circuits. First time i have seen that!
