en/download.wml  24) 
en/download.wml  25) <p>...then please don't just install it and go on.  You need to change some of your habits, and reconfigure your software!</p>
en/download.wml  26) 
en/download.wml  27) <p>Tor by itself is <b>NOT</b> all you need to maintain your anonymity.
en/download.wml  28) There are several major pitfalls to watch out for.
en/download.wml  29) </p>
en/download.wml  30) 
en/download.wml  31) <p>First, Tor only protects Internet applications that are configured to
en/download.wml  32) send their traffic through Tor &mdash; it doesn't magically anonymize
en/download.wml  33) all your traffic just because you install it.  We recommend you
en/download.wml  34) use <a href="http://www.mozilla.org/firefox">Firefox</a> with the <a
en/download.wml  35) href="https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2275/">Torbutton</a> extension.
en/download.wml  36) <!-- , and follow <a href="comingsoon">other recommendations for other
en/download.wml  37) supported applications</a>. -->
en/download.wml  38) </p>
en/download.wml  39) 
en/download.wml  40) <p>Second, browser plugins such as Java, Flash, ActiveX, RealPlayer,
en/download.wml  41) Quicktime, Adobe's PDF plugin, and others can be manipulated
en/download.wml  42) into revealing your IP address. We recommend the <a
en/download.wml  43) href="https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1237/">QuickJava</a> and <a
en/download.wml  44) href="https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/433/">FlashBlock</a> extensions,
en/download.wml  45) and you should probably uninstall other <a href="about:plugins">plugins</a>
en/download.wml  46) in general.  YOu may want to have a browser configured with plug-ins, and another browser stripped down for use with Tor, to be able to use plug-ins when anonymity is not important, and use no plug-ins when you use Tor.  You may even want to use a text browser, such as <a href="http://lynx.browser.org/">lynx</a> when you are using Tor.
en/download.wml  47) <!-- You may also find
en/download.wml  48) <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/722/">NoScript</a> and <a
en/download.wml  49) href="https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1865/">AdBlock</a> helpful. -->
en/download.wml  50) </p>
en/download.wml  51) 
en/download.wml  52) <p>Third, beware of cookies: if you ever browse without Tor and Privoxy
en/download.wml  53) and a site gives you a cookie, that cookie could identify you even when
en/download.wml  54) you start using Tor again. You should clear your cookies frequently. <a
en/download.wml  55) href="https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/82/">CookieCuller</a> can help
en/download.wml  56) protect any cookies you do not want to lose.
en/download.wml  57) </p>
en/download.wml  58) 
en/download.wml  59) <p>Fourth, Tor anonymizes the origin of your traffic,
en/download.wml  60) and it encrypts everything inside the Tor network, but <a
en/download.wml  61) href="http://wiki.noreply.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ#ExitEavesdroppers">it
en/download.wml  62) can't encrypt your traffic between the Tor network and its final
en/download.wml  63) destination.</a>
en/download.wml  64) If you are communicating sensitive information, you should use as much
en/download.wml  65) care as you would on the normal scary Internet &mdash; use SSL or other
en/download.wml  66) end-to-end encryption and authentication. Also, while Tor blocks attackers
en/download.wml  67) on your local network from discovering or influencing your destination,
en/download.wml  68) it opens new risks: malicious or misconfigured Tor exit nodes can send
en/download.wml  69) you the wrong page, or even send you embedded Java applets disguised as
en/download.wml  70) domains you trust.
en/download.wml  71) </p>
en/download.wml  72) 
en/download.wml  73) <p>Last, be smart and learn more. Understand what Tor offers and what
en/download.wml  74) it doesn't offer. This list of pitfalls isn't complete, and we need your
en/download.wml  75) help <a href="<page volunteer>#Documentation">identifying and documenting
en/download.wml  76) all the issues</a>.
