+<h3><a class="anchor" href="#GetTor">Your website is blocked in my

+country. How do I download Tor?</a></h3>

+

+<p>

+Some government or corporate firewalls censor connections to Tor's

+website. In those cases, you have three options. First, get it from

+a friend &mdash; the <a href="<page torbrowser/index>">Tor Browser

+Bundle</a> fits nicely on a USB key. Second, find the google cache

+for the <a href="<page getinvolved/mirrors>">Tor mirrors</a> page

+and see if any of those copies of our website work for you. Third,

+you can download Tor via email: log in to your Gmail account and mail

+'<tt>gettor AT torproject.org</tt>'. If you include the word 'help'

+in the body of the email, it will reply with instructions. Note that

+only a few webmail providers are supported, since they need to be able

+to receive very large attachments.

+Be sure to <a href="<page verifying-signatures>">verify the signature</a>

+of any page you download, especially when you get it from somewhere

+other than our official https website.
