[tor-talk] tormail.net is a project of Russian security services?
Earlier there were discassions about tormail.net in this mail list. Today I find very intereting web-document when Russian users tell that thay suspect that that project is a provocation of Russian security services (http://www.pgpru.com/forum/politikapravorealjnyjjmir/proekttormailnetgrandioznajaprovokacijaspecsluzhbrossii?p=last#Comment51468 , in Russian) They found that when their own server send emails to tormail.net addresses there were the next records in their logs: > R=a_dnslookup T=remote_smtp H=incomin > > g.tormail.net [81.177.32.41] X=TLS1.0:RSA_AES_256_CBC_S > HA1:32 DN="C=RU,ST=Moscow,O=Tor Mail,CN=tormail.net" C= > > "250 OK id=1RyDfA-0003e1-5U" The next, they found: > dig incoming.tormail.net > > ;; ANSWER SECTION: > incoming.tormail.net. 1706IN A 81.177.32.41 > > whois 81.177.32.41 > % Information related to '81.177.32.0 - 81.177.33.255' > > inetnum:81.177.32.0 - 81.177.33.255 > netname:INSOLVERTC3 > descr: In-Solve/1Gb.ru hosting services provider > country:RU > admin-c:DM3950-RIPE > tech-c: DM3950-RIPE > status: ASSIGNED PA > mnt-by: AS8342-MNT > source: RIPE # Filtered > > person: Dmitry Mikhailov > address:123100, Russia, Moscow, > address:Presnenskaya 12, Fed.

It certainly proves that you shouldn't download software from untrusted sources (neither the Tor Project nor Mozilla was involved) and that you should verify the signatures of the software to use. None of that is news, of course. Which was the point of OP, Achter. Perhaps it could be made easier, tutorials on the Tor site, etc., to verify signatures. ___ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
Re: [tor-talk] trouble changing Aurora menu button color - userChrome.css
On 3/22/2012 11:28 AM, Joe Btfsplk wrote: Do others find that Aurora (no longer says Aurora) has almost the same orange color as Firefox for main menu button, to be confusing, when have TBB & Firefox both open (I believe the UI element name is "appmenu-button.")? I'm unable to correctly edit the userChrome.css file in TBB profile, to change the color from orange to green (or what ever). I hope when it changes the menu button color, it'll also change the icon color in the Windows tray. I've edited the userChrome & userContent.css files before, but this doesn't work in TBB. I'm assuming that Aurora WILL use the userChrome.css file, if proper commands w/ proper syntax are entered? Here's the command I found on Lifehacker to change the app-menu button color (using rgba instead of rgb). I edited the userChrome.css file that's in the path "E:\Temp\Tor Browser\TBB 2.2.35-8\Tor Browser\FirefoxPortable\Data\profile\chrome". This is same main path (folder) where I launch TBB, using "Start Tor browser.exe." /* This changes color of orange Firefox menu button. */ #appmenu-button { background-color: rgba(0,128,0,.8) !important; I also tried putting spaces between the decimal values: rgba(0, 128, 0, .8) which made no difference. Can anyone see the problem - if there's one w/ syntax? Or is there another issue I'm overlooking w/ Aurora / TBB? For those interested in changing the color or text of the menu button (on Win version, now same orange & same label "Firefox" as vanilla Firefox), I found the error of my ways & how to change either / or color or button text. Add this code to the userChrome.css file in Tor Browser profile. The profile located in the path: Tor Browser\FirefoxPortable\Data\profile\chrome\userChrome.css. If you don't have the chrome folder or the userChrome.css, create them. Later versions of Firefox don't seem to include example versions of userChrome.css. You can get an older copy of the file, or paste these line at the beginning of the file. Enter any / all desired code *_AFTER_* the line: "@namespace url("http://www.mozilla"; /* * Edit this file and copy it as userChrome.css into your * profile-directory/chrome/ */ /* * This file can be used to customize the look of Mozilla's user interface * You should consider using !important on rules which you want to * override default settings. */ /* * Do not remove the @namespace line -- it's required for correct functioning */ @namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul";); /* set default namespace to XUL */ Then enter the code below. Choose either / or to change button color or text (like to TBB, Torbrow, Aurora, etc.). Choose your own color or text content, where "Torbrow " is shown. /* This changes color of orange Firefox menu button. */ * #appmenu-button { background: #008000 !important; } * /* This changes the appmenu-button text from "Firefox" to "Torbrow"*/ * #appmenu-button dropmarker:before { content: "TorBrow " !important; } #appmenu-button .button-text { display: none !important; } ___ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
[tor-talk] TOR bridge mailing list
Since I was not able to find a place to share tor bridges, I created a place... or rather a mailing list: https://lists.riseup.net/www/info/torbridges If you or people you know are interested in obtaining bridges or disseminating them, this would be a good list to be on. The idea is that people would set up bridges, and send the ip, port and print to this list, and every week I would send out a limited list of what has been collected.

Every hour, the bridge authority sends the descriptors of currently running bridges to bridges.torproject.org, which distributes them to users who request bridges over HTTPS and by e-mail. > If you or people you know are interested in obtaining bridges or > disseminating them, this would be a good list to be on.

Distributing bridge addresses once a week is not useful. Most bridges move to a different IP address every 24 hours.

Re: [tor-talk] AllowDotExit
Eric writes: > using https://xxx.com.foo.ext > is there a way i can keep the pages within .exit? > after the first page the succeeding pages opens in normal url outside the > .exit The trouble is that the site generates links that contain an explicit domain name and the browser simply follows those links. You could abuse HTTPS Everywhere to do what you want, because it's capable of doing arbitrary URL rewriting. HTTPS Everywhere is also preinstalled in the Tor Browser Bundle. If you make an HTTPS Everywhere rule to do your rewrite and then put it inside your tor-browser/Data/profile/HTTPSEverywhereUserRules directory, it should only affect the Tor Browser. The content of the rule would look something like https://example.com.foo.exit/"; /> This rewrites any URLs under http://example.com/, http://www.example.com/, https://example.com/, or https://www.example.com/ to instead point through https://example.com.foo.exit/. The browser will still show the unmodified links if you mouse over them, but it should use the modified links if you actually follow a link. I don't know whether the Tor Browser also edits the Host and the Referer headers in this case in a way that removes the .exit from the hostname to avoid confusing the site. -- Seth Schoen Senior Staff Technologist https://www.eff.org/ Electronic Frontier Foundation https://www.eff.org/join 454 Shotwell Street, San Francisco, CA 94110 +1 415 436 9333 x107 ___ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
