Tor is a software project that helps you defend against traffic analysis, a form of network surveillance that threatens personal freedom and privacy, confidential business activities and relationships, and state security.

Tor protects you by bouncing your communications around a distributed network of relays run by volunteers all around the world: it prevents somebody watching your Internet connection from learning what sites you visit, and it prevents the sites you visit from learning your physical location. Tor works with many of your existing applications, including web browsers, instant messaging clients, remote login, and other applications based on the TCP protocol.

Hundreds of thousands of people around the world use Tor for a wide variety of reasons: journalists and bloggers, human rights workers, law enforcement officers, soldiers, corporations, citizens of repressive regimes, and just ordinary citizens.

What's New:

Major bugfixes:
· Work around a security feature in OpenSSL 0.9.8l that prevents our handshake from working unless we explicitly tell OpenSSL that we are using SSL renegotiation safely. We are, of course, but OpenSSL 0.9.8l won't work unless we say we are.
· Avoid crashing if the client is trying to upload many bytes and the circuit gets torn down at the same time, or if the flip side happens on the exit relay. Bugfix on 0.2.0.1-alpha; fixes bug 1150.

Minor bugfixes:
· Do not refuse to learn about authority certs and v2 networkstatus documents that are older than the latest consensus. This bug might have degraded client bootstrapping.
