    <h2>What Is It?</h2>
    <p>Tor VM is a transparent Tor proxy for Windows built with
    <a href="http://www.qemu.org/">Qemu</a> virtualization technology for more
    resilient clients and relays.
    </p>
    <p>You can think of Tor VM like a Tor virtual network card that routes all of the traffic
     from your machine transparently over the Tor network without application proxy settings or other configuration.
    </p>
    <p>The <a href="https://svn.torproject.org/svn/torvm/trunk/doc/design.html">Tor
    VM design document</a> contains additional detail about this work in progress.</p>

    <h2><a class="anchor" href="#Download">Step One: Download Tor VM Software</a></h2>
    
    <ul>
    <li><a href="dist/TorVM-0.0.2-Bundle.exe">Tor VM Bundle Installer</a>
    (<a href="dist/TorVM-0.0.2-Bundle.exe.asc" style="font-size: 90%;">sig</a>)</li>
    
    <li><a href="dist/TorVM-0.0.2-NetInstaller.exe">Tor VM Network Installer</a>
    (<a href="dist/TorVM-0.0.2-NetInstaller.exe.asc" style="font-size: 90%;">sig</a>)</li>
    </ul>
    
    <hr />
    <a id="Install"></a>
    <h2><a class="anchor" href="#Install">Step Two: Install Tor VM</a></h2>
    
    <p>Double click on the Bundle or Network Installer EXE to begin installation to the
    current system.</p>
    
    <p><img src="img/bundle02.png" alt="Click to Run Bundle Installer" /></p>
    
    <p>The network installer contains the secure Tor updater software that is used
    to reliably download all of the latest bundle application packages on demand.</p>
    
    <p><img src="img/netinst02.png" alt="Network Installer downloads bundle software on demand" /></p>
    
    
    <hr />
    <a id="Run"></a>
    <h2><a class="anchor" href="#Run">Step Three: Run Tor VM</a></h2>
    
    <p>When installation is complete a Tor VM controller is started in
    the background. The installer program has finished and can be closed.</p>
    
    <p><img src="img/run01.png" alt="Tor VM controller will start at end of install" /></p>
    
    <p>After preparing network devices a Qemu virtual machine running the
    Tor VM kernel is launched with the Vidalia controller. It may take a
    few minutes to bootstrap into the Tor network. Please be patient.</p>
    
    <p><img src="img/run02.png" alt="Bootstrap not complete until circuit created" /></p>

    <a id="RecommendedUse"></a>
    <h2><a class="anchor" href="#RecommendedUse">Step Four: Using Firefox and Torbutton</a></h2>
    
    <p>Once Tor has successfully built a circuit the Switch User menu is presented.
    Firefox and other Tor applications must be run with the "Tor" restricted user account.</p>
    
    <p><img src="img/tor-user-switch.png" alt="Switch to Tor restricted user account" /></p>
    
    <p>Start Firefox and click on the Torbutton status icon in the lower right to enable Tor.</p>
    
    <p><img src="img/torbutton04.png" alt="Click on Torbutton status icon to toggle ON" /></p>
    
    <p>Verify that you are using Tor via
    <a href="https://check.torproject.org/">https://check.torproject.org/</a></p>

    <p><img src="img/tbcontent.png" alt="Toggle disable plugins dynamic content security setting" /></p>
    
    <p>Connections made from the Browser and Flash Player plugin will now
    be transparently proxied through the Tor network when viewing content.</p>
