Re: Firefox quits when attempting to download
Hi, Can you rm tor-browser_en-US/Lib/libz* and try again? I think that'll fix the crash for now and I'll have a real fix in the next bundle. signature.asc Description: Digital signature

It's possible. It's just a website, and the people running your country's firewall are already good at blocking websites when they choose to. Also, you should notice that the bridges given out via https tend to get blocked earlier than the bridges given out via gmail. So if they do block that website, it may be that the next step is to block the bridges it gives out. > Of course I've been able to obtain & successfully use bridges using > the other [documented] means of acquiring bridges but I'm left > wondering why this connection problem is happening and if anyone else > was having similar problems either in Thailand or elsewhere? A fine question.

Cannot Download Bridges
Greetings from SE Asia, I've been unable to download bridges in the 1.3.3 version of the tor-browser bundle for windows, when attempting to download bridges via Settings>Network>Find Bridges Now. Each time I attempt to download bridges I receive the following: "Unable to download bridges: HTTP request failed". I've attempted to acquire bridges, using the above described method, on several occasions during the last week - each time receiving the same notification. Is it possible this connection is being blocked from within the country where I'm attempting to retrieve the bridges (Thailand) or perhaps from somewhere else? I also noticed the same problem with the previous version of the tor browser bundle for windows, so it would not seem to necessarily be a *new* problem. Of course I've been able to obtain & successfully use bridges using the other [documented] means of acquiring bridges but I'm left wondering why this connection problem is happening and if anyone else was having similar problems either in Thailand or elsewhere? Any thoughts? Regards, John *** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to majord...@torproject.org with unsubscribe or-talkin the body. http://archives.seul.org/or/talk/

By the way, what Actually, I think you've overstated that a little bit. Hidden services can be offered by client-only systems and therefore can do so behind a NATing router without any port forwarding beyond what the NAT is already doing. >the hell is 172.18.12.161? Who can connect to that thing? Well, one would certainly hope that it's not his real address, now that he's publicized it as being supposedly a bridge address. As far as your second question is concerned, let us hope that the answer is "no one". > >second, I do not think "Loding relay information..." has anything to do >with your recent bridge configuration. > In this, you are most likely correct. To offer a relay of any type behind a NATing router, one does have to configure the router with the appropriate RDR for port forwarding, although I confess I've never played with BINAT and therefore have no idea whether there might be a way to make it work for tor.
