Tor 0.2.2.25-alpha released - To Toggle, or not to Toggle & The End of Torbutton!

May 03, 2011
Tor 0.2.2.25-alpha released - To Toggle, or not to Toggle & The End of Torbutton! Tor 0.2.2.25-alpha fixes many bugs: hidden service clients are more robust, routers no longer overreport their bandwidth, Win7 should crash a little less, and NEWNYM (as used by Vidalia's "new identity" button)now prevents hidden service-related activity from being linkable. It provides more information to Vidalia so you can see if your bridge is working. Also, 0.2.2.25-alpha revamps the Entry/Exit/ExcludeNodes and StrictNodes configuration options to make them more reliable, more understandable, and more regularly applied. If you use those options, please see the revised documentation for them in the manual page.
