Usually I use Tor with Firefox through Torbutton extension , with Vidalia and Polipoas web proxy, but a couple of days to open the browser I found the following message: “ Differently Torbutton works now: you can not turn it off any more … If you want to keep using Firefox normally, You Should Torbutton uninstall and download Tor Browser Bundle ”which warned that for security reasons, and given the number of bugs produced to navigate without the extension on, now would be the Tor button always enabled by default , recommending that users navigate normally wanted firefox, uninstall that complement and download Tor Bundle Browse

With that said, if we can disable the menu Torbutton and proceed to activate, just going to use when restarting the browser, but with the warning of these potential security flaws by the Tor Project team, probably the best option is use Tor Browser Bundle: a multiplatform portable browser, which does not require any installation and project developers considered the safest method to surf anonymously .

The latest version is based on Tor Browser Firefox 86.0 , as you see used Startpage as default search button plus Torbutton for creating new identities or protect cookies, also includes other items such as:

• NoScript : essential to prevent unwanted traffic and blocking JavaScript, Java and other plugins that could allow track us
• HTTPS-Everywhere : an extension created by the EFF to force encrypted https connection in those places that allow it.

On the issue of the installation, all you have to do is download Tor Browser from the web , choose the package for computer architecture (32 or 64 bits) and the language that we use, the file contains everything we will need to browse anonymously with Tor and then extract it in our personal folder and give it execute permissions to the script start-tor-browser that comes inside the folder tor-browser_en-En. We ran and the first we see is the Vidalia control panel and within seconds Tor Browser, and ready for use.
