Hi, I just started using Puppy today.

I'd like to use the TOR browser but I'm unsure if such a (.pet?) exists for it?

I was wondering if anybody knew a version of Puppy for which a version of TOR (a .pet? I'm not sure of the terminology) was readily available and working.

So my concern is simply GETTING A VERSION OF PUPPY TO RUN TOR!

Thank you for reading!

a .pet for Tor for lucid Puppy is available here ... http://distro.ibiblio.org/puppylinux/pet_packages-lucid/

NB: Read the small print on Tor before using it.

Thanks for the help, hopefully I'll be able to easily install TOR in either slacko or lucid once I need to...If not I guess I'll post another time asking for help Smile

The version I have running successfully in Lucid puppy 525 is "TOR-Browser-1.1.13",
there are more recent versions which I haven't tried yet.


Update:
I've just tried "TOR-Browser-2.2.35-3-Lucid52.pet" which works ok.
