I want to help strengthen TOR by using tor as a relais, but only within

Currently I start TOR using Vidalia.

Maybe, but no bookmarks really is a pain. I can live without tabs, but
not without bookmarks.

No, Orweb is nothing I would consider. Orweb cannot save bookmarks, does
not support tabbed browsing. I think Orweb is only usable in emergency
