I'm trying to run Tor on a live disk, but keep seeing the warning "user
tor not found." Tor fails to start. It looks like I just need to add a
user, but which groups would this user need to belong to?
linux-rvcp:~ # /etc/init.d/tor start

We already know what happens when we have lax standards. There is no
oversight, and administration is the discretion of a disgruntled agent or

I'm getting frequent "504: Connection refused" errors on a few sites.
This usually happens when I've been logged onto the site for an hour or
two. Restarting Firefox doesn't fix the problem, the only thing that seems
to work is restarting the Tor and Polipo daemons. Does anyone know what

On setting the Torbutton preferences, I get the warning from Torbutton
nine times ("You need to toggle Tor or restart for your settings to take
effect.") Once on opening the preferences, eight more times on saving the
settings. I have Firefox 3.5 on an Ubuntu Karmic VM. Is there something I
can do

I just noticed that on closing a Firefox session, google cookies are not
removed. I have to toggle Tor to remove them. Is this normal?

I'm trying to get Tor working in Firefox/Torbutton on openSUSE 11.2.
There's something about the privoxy settings that it doesn't seem to
like. In the privoxy config, I've tried
forward-socks4a / localhost:9050 . (internal error)
forward-socks4a / 127.0.0.1:9050 . (check settings)

Ignore. Checking the preference
When I switch to Tor via the TorButton, I'm given a fresh cookies cache
but my download history is intact. Downloads in anon mode are not added
to the history. Is this by design?
