+If your firewall works by blocking ports, then you can tell Tor to only
1045
+use the ports that your firewall permits by adding "FascistFirewall 1" to
1046
+your <a href="<wikifaq>#Imsupposedtoeditmytorrc.Whatdoesthatmean">torrc
1047
+configuration file</a>, or by clicking "My firewall only lets me connect
1048

1051
+<p>
1052
+By default, when you set this Tor assumes that your firewall allows only
1053
+port 80 and port 443 (HTTP and HTTPS respectively). You can select a
1054
+different set of ports with the FirewallPorts torrc option.

+If you want to be more fine-grained with your controls, you can also
1059
