There is a
TOR-Browser Bundle 1.1.13 now.

http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/puppylinux/pet-packages-lucid/TOR-Browser-1.1.13-Lucid52.pet

This is the TOR-Browser Bundle 1.1.13. It is complete with Firefox 3.6.20, so there is nothing to configure--just install and go. If the opening Control Panel stalls it might be necessary to use Psync to set the local system time to network time.

Firstly, thanks to Playdayz for all the work.

I am running Wary5 frugal with SeaMonkey and using web email thru Yahoo. Yahoo wants me to upgrade to their new email version (and will no doubt force me at some point) but they only work with IE, Firefox3, Chrome and Safari.

1. Will the Tor bundle install/work in Wary5, as it looks like it is geared to Lucid?

2. Is SM close enough to FF so that I wouldn't have to use another browser? I am afraid of messing up my mail boxes if I make the wrong move here.

3. Would it be better to get a Puppy that has FF as a browser?

TIA, retry3

I've been having some trouble with getting flash to work in the browser, tor browser is the only browser i'm using currently on my puppy install and i've replaced all the old flash libs with the new ones from the flash installation package but flash still won't work, any ideas?

Thanks for the interest Playdayz -

With primitive skills and knowledge, this is how far I have gotten

Ran Wary5 off CD pfix=ram and downloaded the Tor Bundle using SM.

Found file: start-tor-browser in /opt/tor-browser_en-US (All)

Click on file opens Vidalia Control Panel window but only for approx 5 secs.

The blue bar gets to "authenticating to tor" then quits.

As per your tip, i used Psync - no difference

Quickly clicking on Settings in the Vidalia Panel will allow me to get to Vidalia Help for about 5 minutes before it also quits.

Once the Vidalia Panel had "tor not running" in Status box.

I found the FireFox folder using Pfind.

The Pet Manager for Wary 5 lists the Tor browser bundle as being installed.

I probably overlooked something important, but thats the report.

Regards

@seaside
Thank you very much, seems to be the root of most of my problems not checking things out very thoroughly.
