Title: Updating Tor?
Post by: darthvaderstar on June 04, 2012, 10:58 pm
When i start Tor i see that there is a security update, but when i click on it and download the latest Tor bundle, on the extracting part it says that i already have to file so then i just click 'yes to all'. My question is, did i update it correctly? Or what am i missing here, because i still see the big yellow link.

I was leery of accepting the update cause it may have been a program for the leos as they have now been working on it for a yr.

That message sometimes shows unnecessarily.

You can check the installed versions for Tor and Firefox. For Tor, check "About" in Vidalia, and for Firefox, check "Help -> About" in the browser. They should match the ones listed for the Tor bundle.
