HTTPS transport should prevent the type of modification you're talking about, so just double-check your URIs before downloading anything. For example, NoScript: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/latest/722/addon-722-latest.xpi?src=browse And TorButton: https://www.torproject.org/dist/torbutton/torbutton-current.xpi ~Justin Aplin _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
