Tor Browser 4.0.1 is released
A bugfix release for the latest stable Tor Browser is available from the Tor Browser Project page and also from our distribution directory.
Most notably, Tor Browser 4.0.1 fixes a crash bug affecting many users on Windows (see: bug 13443 for the details). Furthermore, the latest stable version of Tor (0.2.5.10) is included and a bug in our updater code got fixed.
This is not a security update, and we will not be deploying update notification or automatic upgrades for all platforms for this release. We may provide automatic updates just for Windows users later in the week, but we are hesitant to do this immediately due to Bug 13594.
Here is the changelog since 4.0:
- All Platforms
- Update Tor to 0.2.5.10
- Update NoScript to 2.6.9.3
- Bug 13301: Prevent extensions incompatibility error after upgrades
- Bug 13460: Fix MSVC compilation issue
- Windows
- Bug 13443: Disable DirectShow to prevent crashes on many sites
- Bug 13091: Make app name "Tor Browser" instead of "Tor"

Hey guys thanks for the latest release, I was hoping that 4.0.1 would of fixed my crashing issue but it still remains.
Until 4.0.0 was released I never had a problem updating Tor etc, but since then, when ever I try to open it it just crashes and gives me this windows message. (http://i.imgur.com/ouZMTTh.jpg?1) I've spent hours trying to find away around it (inc USBs).

I literally can't wait for a 64bit torbrowser, because the 32bit version is lagging ALOT
64-bit Tor Browser already
64-bit Tor Browser already exists for 64-bit GNU/Linux, so I assume you're talking about for Windows. Tor Browser going 64-bit isn't going to happen on Windows until Firefox releases 64-bit versions, as Tor Browser is based on Firefox and doesn't have the programming staff to deal with getting 64-bit builds done themselves.
With that said, when you say it is "lagging alot," what do you mean by lagging? Unless you have a lot of tabs open, Tor Browser shouldn't be talking up enough memory for 64-bit to provide a significant benefit. If you're referring to page load time, that's an unfortunate cost of the anonymity that Tor provides and can't be eliminated.
Don;t forget the mac, and I
Don;t forget the mac, and I don't mean page load speed, page load speed was never that bad as people claim it to be. What I meant was scrolling down a page (for example) even when I'm only on 1 tab, or minimizing the browser, etc.. it lags it doesn't move smoothly, it seems like it moves step by step, piece by piece taking ALOT of time to do its task like minimizing or scrolling down...

I really hope the next
I really hope the next TorBrowser release supports H.264, you can ask Mozilla to backport it, or you can patch it. H.264 will increase TorBrowser's usability significantly, which will increase its user base, and hence the anonymity it provides.
Also, why don't you take advantage of webRTC and make it a Skype alternative?
My understanding is that
My understanding is that H.264 is still patented, and the only reason firefox has it is that they've got Cisco building the code for them and they don't actually distribute it (the firefox installer goes and retrieves it from Cisco's servers which removes some of the patent concerns for Mozilla.) Code compiled by a third party is a rather large concern in Tor Browser where it could be used to leak. Yes, it might increase the user base but it isn't worthwhile given the security concerns.

I thought NoScript was supposed to have been fixed so that you don't have to keep clicking on permissions for every subsequent sub-script.

I downloaded TB 4.0.1and clean installed it [i.e. not over a previous version] but Firefox refuses to open. I deleted it and went back to TB 3.6.6_en-US which is where I am posting from and it works without any problems. Any suggestions as I always try to use the most updated version.
I've never had Trusteer
I've never had Trusteer Rapport, plus the "directshow.enabled" setting is now false by default, and I can confirm that this version *still* has problems loading on Windows 7.
Roughly half the time, it works normally. The other half, it will load firefox.exe and tor.exe into memory and that's the end of it -- no browser window ever appears, and I have to manually end both processes and try again. It's utterly random whether it opens or not. It literally may not work, I kill the processes, then try again immediately and it loads normally!!! I can't figure out what causes it to load or not load. I'm also amazed that no one behind Tor has seemingly seen this behavior, while many people have reported it.
I'm using 4.0.1, but it usually takes 2 or 3 attempts to load properly, which is just... bleh.

And make it impossible for
And make it impossible for the large number of users who are stuck for one reason or another with Windows to use Tor Browser?
Running Tor Browser on
Running Tor Browser on Windows with antiviruses and similar spies is nothing more than false sense of security.
First of all, not everyone
First of all, not everyone runs intrusive antiviruses even on Windows; the "spies" are almost entirely third-party tools. This doesn't mean that Windows is safer than other OSes; it almost certainly has backdoors in it, but they have to be accessed. With that said, you can expect that Microsoft only gives those backdoors to governments and corporations it is on good relations with. It might not effect you much, but for users in countries whose governments aren't on good terms with Microsoft, they can expect they're government to have significantly more trouble monitoring them on machines running Windows. Tor isn't only a program for anonymity in the West; that's why they get government funding along with other similar programs.
Secondly, even though other OSes are open source and can have their source code reviewed that doesn't mean they can't have security bugs or even have flaws intentionally coded by agents of certain governmental or corporate organizations. The code base is just to big and complicated to expect even a detailed review to have a good chance of finding them. Heartbleed was a bug in a smaller piece of software that had a greater than normal number of eyes on it and it went unreported for a significant amount of time.
I'm not trying to say Windows is superior; simply that alternatives might be superior to Windows but they're still not perfect. You don't have perfect security on them just like you don't have perfect security on Windows. Perfect security is functionally impossible as long as you're using a computer. It's about maximizing security, and for some use cases where changing Operating Systems is impossible for a variety of reasons Tor Browser can be used to increase security on Windows.
I am going to call this
I am going to call this comment the definitive answer to the Windows debate, and suggest we end this thread here.

Tor devs have no resource to support windows versions of tor software properly by design. Nobody of them using any of windows and MinGW will never support all new features that need for firefox to work, after mingw fixes old buggy features firefox begins to use new one that working only for MSVC builds. And Mozilla have no MinGW support for real. Look at TBB bugs affected by mingw, lack of feature or bug in implementation of run-time in every case.

hi I made a comment before
hi
I made a comment before on this post (not published yet) but after hours of challenge with my TOR browser, i thought maybe I should make another one. I don't really know what is the "root" of this situation but as a "non-expert" user, I can say these:
1- this problem comes after installing some add-ons and the base TOR browser works fine, even in my old XP window! :)
2- the specific add-on(s) that cause this problem, are not the problem themselves. they are not bad! they're just not working fine with new TOR! that's all! I can say this because the whole add-ons I have on my TOR are as the same as ones I have on my original Firefox and there, they're working beautifully.
3- not sure about this one, but maybe you should check this add-on out. I think (as a non-expert, again) this add-on and its functionality may lead you TOR guys to the root of this problem. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/donottrackplus/?src=user…

Total BS!
You may have nothing to hide, but most people have lots to PROTECT.
If YOU have "nothing to hide", then I suggest you remove all the curtains from your windows, remove all the locks from your doors, post a big sign in your front yard listing, in detail, everything you own, and a work schedule so that everyone can know exactly when you are going to be at home, and when you are going to be away.
After all, you have nothing to hide, so you have nothing to worry about, right?
People having access to every detail of your life shouldn't threaten you if you are doing nothing wrong, right?
And we ALL know how totally good and honorable those in government are, right? They would never lie, cheat, or steal, would they? Of course not! They are BETTER than the rest of us, by far.
Surely you can trust your closest neighbors more than the complete strangers in government.
So, why don't you just post all that personal information here first, along with full name, address, and phone number, and prove you aren't a complete hypocrite?

@ Arma et al Tor staff
@ Arma et al
Tor staff should please keep in mind that many of us reside in areas where any upgrade from XP to other Win levels is not possible due to increased government licensing requirements for users.
Poor financial exchange rates values too prohibit even smugglers from brokering new equipment to ourselves when food, fuel and medicine take priority. Even Win7 is prohibitive and any attempt at downloading a 512Mb Linux/Ubuntu variation - at 16 kbps - soon has the authorities demanding documentations.
Please rethink how many of our activists are now being excluded from international communications as a consequence of incompatibility with your 4.0.0 and 4.0.1 TBB versions.

I use Vidalia (standalone) to see the circuits.
When my 1st EntryGuard is stressed by deleting circuits my
2nd EntryGuard (or the 3rd) builds one always with 'zwiebeltorolaf' as ExitNode
(the circuit works same as others and the Node in the middle changes).
Signature of TBB is checked.
I changed the EntryGuards and excluded 'zwiebeltorolaf' (ExcludeNodes) in torrc but this doesn't help.
Is this a default behaviour (since TBB 4.0, now 4.0.1) of Tor?
And YES, I'm able to reproduce it.

Looks like that relay is fast but not especially fast.
I wonder if your use of Vidalia is messing things up. It's been unsupported or deprecated for years now.
For example, you should have one entry guard at this point, not three.

Yeah, no kidding. We need either some extra time to walk the Cloudflare people through why this is so bad for us, or we need external dedicated volunteers to do it.

TOR download will not
TOR download will not extract without giving at least two .dll errors : one of which is libevent-2-0-5.dll
I think the other one was libgcc_s_sjlj-1.dll
I'm using XP SP2 (nothing wrong with this OS : I uninstalled IE and use Firefox)
Why the errors please ?

31.2.0 (Tor Browser 4.0)
Tor Browser is up to date
I thought inplace upgrading was supposed to work in TBB 4 so why do I see no update?
4.0 and 4.0.1 are both fine
4.0 and 4.0.1 are both fine versions to run. You only need to upgrade if 4.0 isn't working for you.
https://sedvblmbog.tudasnich.de/projects/torbrowser/RecommendedTBBVersions is the file that your Tor Browser looks at.
hi where is 64bit version
hi
where is 64bit version for mac os x??
I would love a 64bit version
I would love a 64bit version instead of this lagging 32bit version
Why is Torbrowser for Mac
Why is Torbrowser for Mac actually 32 bit instead of 64 bit?
The original Firefox ESR for Mac is already for a long time 64 bit, running without any problems on 32 bit as 64 bit MacIntel-machines as well (minimum os x 10.6 and later).
Hi, thanks for your good
Hi, thanks for your good work!
I just want to report some staff...
1st When I go to: "Menu" --> "Help Menu" --> "About Tor Browser" and
a) click on "Tor Project", instead of taking me to the Tor Projects' website (https://sedvblmbog.tudasnich.de/), it takes me to Mozilla's home page (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/)
b) click on "global community" it takes me to Moxilla's Contributors (https://www.mozilla.org/credits/)
c) click on "Get Involved" it takes me to Mozilla's volunteers (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/contribute/)
2nd When I go to: "Menu" --> "Help Menu" --> "Tor Browser Help" it takes me to Mozilla's help page (https://support.mozilla.org/1/firefox/31.2.0/WINNT/en-US/firefox-help), instead of a similar Tor's page.
3rd When I go to: "Menu" --> "Help Menu" --> "Tor Browser Toor" it takes me to Mozilla's Firefox toor page (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/31.2.0/tour/)
4th When I go to: "Menu" --> "Help Menu" --> "Submit Feedback..." it takes me to Mozilla's feedback page (https://input.mozilla.org/en-US/feedback/firefox/31.2.0/), instead of a Tor's similar one
In fact, these existed in every previous version of Tor Browser...
Regarding the missing media
Regarding the missing media tab under 'page info'...the ticket at
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/13489
Seems to have been closed because it is a duplicate. However it doesn't look to me like a duplicate, 13254 appears at first glance to be a different issue, even though they may have the same root cause.
Both deal with missing page info, but the security tab at least shows up (for me)...media info is completely missing.
"but the security tab at
"but the security tab at least shows up (for me)"
Yes but its not in function, "Technical Details" stay's empty.
The "Security information for this page" in the general tab seems not to display all the information it should.

Tor Browser 4.0.1 probably
Tor Browser 4.0.1 probably has an DNS leak.
Steps to reproduce on Windows with a enabled firewall (eg. Comodo):
1. Disable system DNS cache.
2. Go to any www site and download any link or file use "Save link as..."
After downloading the file a firewall will report a few UDP request on port 53 to the clearnet.
For the second time in two
For the second time in two days experienced exactly the error as descibed in #13377. Filling my console with this message, making my Torbrowser quite unresponsive with a very nervous mouse pointer, help am i being hacked? No its 's just NoScript ethousiasm? ;).
#13377 new defect
NoScript exception when clicking on New Identity (onWidgetAfterDOMChange) in ESR 31
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/13377
Should i install an older NoScript version or go back to torbrowser 4.0?
I am unable to keep my Tor
I am unable to keep my Tor relay operating above a pathetic 2K bandwidth.
My DSL service allows upload speeds of more than 300K.
In my Tor relay settings, I have specified 50K for both average and minimum. The Tor bandwidth self-test usualy shows close to that.
Sometimes the relay has run at 20K, but always seems to drop to 6K, then to 3K, and now 2K.
ATT is my provider.
Any ideas?
uhh...sry to tell u that
uhh...sry to tell u that tbb4 cannot work with windows clients by bridges of amazon/azure-meek guys, yup, my network is under the GFW (the Great FireWall). But if I use the Linux clients, eg.Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS, the tbb4 works!
A question for the Tor
A question for the Tor project, when will Tor 4.0.2 be released to the public?
I don't know if this is the
I don't know if this is the correct place to post this but:
I have been using Tor for a few months without any problems but suddenly today I keep getting the error message:
"Tor unexpectedly exited. This might be due to a bug in Tor itself, another program on your system or faulty hardware….."
So when I click restart Tor I just get the same message. I have downloaded the latest version (I was using 4.0) - but the same error keeps occurring.
When I click to copy the Tor Log it just shows as blank i.e. no info
I'm using Mac OS X 10.7.5 and as I said have been using Tor for a few months without any problems until today - any help would be much appreciated!
Windows 7 64 - Tor doesnt
Windows 7 64 - Tor doesnt load at all.
I unpacked Tor 4.0.1. to My desktop, then clicked "Start Tor Browser" - nothing happened.
4.0. version also doesnt starts now from its own folder.
There is no any new processes when I click "Start Tor Browser"
- I dont use "trusteer rapport"
- I cannot set the about:config option to set "media.directshow.enabled" to "false" since browser dont even starts
- I had installed Tor into a fresh location rather than overwriting an old Tor Browser install
Could you help me?

More info for My above comment from November 23rd, 2014:
When I click "Start Tro Browser" there is WerFault.exe loaded in Processes (I can see it through Task Manager) for a second and then immediately disappears.

# BUG REPORT
#########################################################
There seems to be a major screw-up in terms of screen size (resolution) fingerprinting - checked on https://panopticlick.eff.org:
Plain Firefox 33.1.1 shows 1024x600x24, independently of whether the menu bar is shown or not.
torbrowser-install-4.0.1_en-US.exe on WinXP Home 32 bit causes following instead:
- With menu bar shown (default): 1024x476x24 ("one in 1183729.75 browsers have this value")
- With menu bar disabled: 1024x499x24 ("one in 175367.48 browsers have this value")
As far as I remember, pre-4.0 versions of TBB had some fix common value, such as 1024x768x24 or something.
