I have tried out TOR.

The only downsides I have found are
1. Slow response.

2. Where add ons (eg. Flash) are used by site visited these are assumed to be absent from your browser.

These I regard as acceptable.

Subject: [LUG] Tor Project

Even though Linux is supposed to be a bit more secure than Windows I still look around for anything I can find on the topic of web security. Today I found a reference to something called Tor.

http://www.torproject.org

Has anyone on the list come across it? (I am particularly aiming this at Bad Apple). If so I would be interested in any comments. Especially as I seem to be getting more and more rubbish emails recently.

Regards

Neil
