en/download.wml  44) work?</a></h2>

en/download.wml  45) 

en/download.wml  46) <p>...then please don't just install it and go on.  You need to change
en/download.wml  47) some of your habits, and reconfigure your software!
en/download.wml  48) Tor by itself is <b>NOT</b> all you need to maintain your anonymity.

en/download.wml  49) There are several major pitfalls to watch out for.
en/download.wml  50) </p>
en/download.wml  51) 
en/download.wml  52) <p>First, Tor only protects Internet applications that are configured to
en/download.wml  53) send their traffic through Tor &mdash; it doesn't magically anonymize
en/download.wml  54) all your traffic just because you install it.  We recommend you
en/download.wml  55) use <a href="http://www.mozilla.org/firefox">Firefox</a> with the <a
en/download.wml  56) href="https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2275/">Torbutton</a> extension.
en/download.wml  57) <!-- , and follow <a href="comingsoon">other recommendations for other
en/download.wml  58) supported applications</a>. -->
en/download.wml  59) </p>
en/download.wml  60) 
en/download.wml  61) <p>Second, browser plugins such as Java, Flash, ActiveX, RealPlayer,
en/download.wml  62) Quicktime, Adobe's PDF plugin, and others can be manipulated

en/download.wml  63) into revealing your IP address. You should probably uninstall your plugins
en/download.wml  64) (go to "about:plugins" to see what is installed), or investigate <a
en/download.wml  65) href="https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1237/">QuickJava</a>, <a
en/download.wml  66) href="https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/433/">FlashBlock</a>, and

en/download.wml  67) <a href="http://noscript.net/">NoScript</a>

en/download.wml  68) if you really need them. Consider removing extensions that look up
en/download.wml  69) more information about the websites you type in (like Google toolbar),
en/download.wml  70) as they may bypass Tor and/or broadcast sensitive information. Some
en/download.wml  71) people prefer using two browsers (one for Tor, one for unsafe browsing).

en/download.wml  72) <!-- You may even want to use a text browser, such as <a
en/download.wml  73) href="http://lynx.browser.org/">lynx</a> when you are using Tor. -->

en/download.wml  74) <!-- You may also find
en/download.wml  75) <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/722/">NoScript</a> and <a
en/download.wml  76) href="https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1865/">AdBlock</a> helpful. -->
en/download.wml  77) </p>
en/download.wml  78) 
en/download.wml  79) <p>Third, beware of cookies: if you ever browse without Tor and Privoxy
en/download.wml  80) and a site gives you a cookie, that cookie could identify you even when
en/download.wml  81) you start using Tor again. You should clear your cookies frequently. <a
en/download.wml  82) href="https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/82/">CookieCuller</a> can help
en/download.wml  83) protect any cookies you do not want to lose.
en/download.wml  84) </p>
en/download.wml  85) 
en/download.wml  86) <p>Fourth, Tor anonymizes the origin of your traffic,
en/download.wml  87) and it encrypts everything inside the Tor network, but <a
en/download.wml  88) href="http://wiki.noreply.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ#ExitEavesdroppers">it
en/download.wml  89) can't encrypt your traffic between the Tor network and its final
en/download.wml  90) destination.</a>
en/download.wml  91) If you are communicating sensitive information, you should use as much
en/download.wml  92) care as you would on the normal scary Internet &mdash; use SSL or other

en/download.wml  93) end-to-end encryption and authentication.
en/download.wml  94) </p>
en/download.wml  95) 
en/download.wml  96) <p>Fifth, while Tor blocks attackers

en/download.wml  97) on your local network from discovering or influencing your destination,
en/download.wml  98) it opens new risks: malicious or misconfigured Tor exit nodes can send
en/download.wml  99) you the wrong page, or even send you embedded Java applets disguised as
en/download.wml 100) domains you trust.
en/download.wml 101) </p>
en/download.wml 102) 

en/download.wml 103) <p>Be smart and learn more. Understand what Tor does and does not offer.
en/download.wml 104) This list of pitfalls isn't complete, and we need your

en/download.wml 105) help <a href="<page volunteer>#Documentation">identifying and documenting
en/download.wml 106) all the issues</a>.
