When we added HTTPTunnelPort, the answer that we give when you try to use your SOCKSPort as an HTTP proxy became wrong. Now we explain that Tor sorta _is_ an HTTP proxy, but a SOCKSPort isn't. I have left the status line the same, in case anything is depending on it. I have removed the extra padding for Internet Explorer, since the message is well over 512 bytes without it. Fixes bug 23678; bugfix on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
Tor protects your privacy on the internet by hiding the connection
between your Internet address and the services you use. We believe Tor
is reasonably secure, but please ensure you read the instructions and
configure it properly.
To build Tor from source:
./configure && make && make install
To build Tor from a just-cloned git repository:
sh autogen.sh && ./configure && make && make install
