26) <li>The <strong>Vidalia Bundle</strong> contains Tor, <a href="<page projects/vidalia>">Vidalia</a>, Polipo, and Torbutton for installation on your system. You need your own Firefox, and you'll need to configure other applications if you want them to use Tor.</li>

27) <li>The <strong>Bridge-by-Default Vidalia Bundle</strong> is a
28) <strong>Vidalia Bundle</strong> which is configured to be a <a
29) href="<page docs/bridges>">bridge</a> in order to help censored users

31) <li>The <strong>Expert Package</strong> contains just Tor and nothing else.  You'll need to configure Tor and all of your applications manually.</li>

33) <p>There are two versions of each package, a stable and alpha release.  Stable packages are released when we believe the features and code will not change for many months.  Alpha or unstable packages are released so you can help us test new features and bugfixes. Even though they have a higher version number than the stable versions listed above, there is a much higher chance of serious reliability and security bugs in these downloads.

193) <h2><a class="anchor" href="#warning">Want Tor to really work?</a></h2>

194) <p>...then please don't just install it and go on.  You need to change some of your habits, and reconfigure your software! Tor by itself is <em>NOT</em> all you need to maintain your anonymity. There are several major pitfalls to watch out for:

195) </p>
196) 
197) <ol>
198) <li>
199) Tor only protects Internet applications that are configured to
200) send their traffic through Tor &mdash; it doesn't magically anonymize
201) all your traffic just because you install it.  We recommend you
202) use <a href="http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html">Firefox</a> with the <a
203) href="<page torbutton/index>">Torbutton</a> extension.
204) </li>
205) 
206) <li>
207) Torbutton blocks browser plugins such as Java, Flash, ActiveX, RealPlayer,
208) Quicktime, Adobe's PDF plugin, and others: they can be manipulated
209) into revealing your IP address. For example, that means Youtube is
210) disabled. If you really need your Youtube, you can <a href="<page
211) torbutton/torbutton-faq>#noflash">reconfigure Torbutton</a> to allow it; but
212) be aware that you're opening yourself up to potential attack. Also,
213) extensions like Google toolbar look up more information about the
214) websites you type in: they may bypass Tor and/or broadcast sensitive
215) information. Some people prefer using two browsers (one for Tor, one

216) for non-Tor browsing).

217) </li>
218) 
219) <li>
220) Beware of cookies: if you ever browse without Tor and a site gives
221) you a cookie, that cookie could identify you even when you start
222) using Tor again. Torbutton tries to handle your cookies safely. <a
223) href="https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/82/">CookieCuller</a> can help
224) protect any cookies you do not want to lose.
225) </li>
226) 
227) <li>
228) Tor anonymizes the origin of your traffic, and it encrypts everything
229) between you and the Tor network and everything inside the Tor network,

230) but <a href="<wikifaq>#SoImtotallyanonymousifIuseTor">it

231) can't encrypt your traffic between the Tor network and its final
232) destination.</a> If you are communicating sensitive information, you
233) should use as much care as you would on the normal scary Internet &mdash;

234) use HTTPS or other end-to-end encryption and authentication.  <a
235) href="https://www.eff.org/https-everywhere">HTTPS Everywhere</a> is a
236) Firefox extension produced as a collaboration between The Tor Project
237) and the Electronic Frontier Foundation. It encrypts your communications
238) with a number of major websites.

239) </li>
240) 
241) <li>
242) While Tor blocks attackers on your local network from discovering
243) or influencing your destination, it opens new risks: malicious or
244) misconfigured Tor exit nodes can send you the wrong page, or even send
245) you embedded Java applets disguised as domains you trust. Be careful
246) opening documents or applications you download through Tor, unless you've
247) verified their integrity.
248) </li>

249) 
250) <li>
251) Tor tries to prevent attackers from learning what destinations you connect
252) to. It doesn't prevent somebody watching your traffic from learning that
253) you're using Tor. You can mitigate (but not fully resolve) the risk
254) by using a <a href="<page docs/bridges>">Tor bridge relay</a> rather than
255) connecting directly to the public Tor network, but ultimately the best
256) protection here is a social approach: the more Tor users there are near
257) you and the more <a href="<page about/torusers>">diverse</a> their interests,
258) the less dangerous it will be that you are one of them.
259) </li>

260) 
261) <li> Do not use <a
262) href="https://blog.torproject.org/blog/bittorrent-over-tor-isnt-good-idea">BitTorrent
263) and Tor</a> together unless you are using a system like <a
264) href="http://tails.boum.org/">TAILS</a>.
265) </li>

266) </ol>

267) <br>

268) <p>
269) Be smart and learn more. Understand what Tor does and does not offer.
270) This list of pitfalls isn't complete, and we need your
271) help <a href="<page getinvolved/volunteer>#Documentation">identifying and documenting
272) all the issues</a>.
