Are you referring to tor client operation as well as bridge operation? I run my tor client on a box that I use as needed, and the bridge on a separate 24/7 box. > As an example, when I helped a friend set-up Tor Browser on his > Windows machine, AVG reported that tor.exe was a possible virus and > removed it, this also happened when we tested the Tor Vidalia bundle. > This was simply a filesystem check though, rather than packet/traffic > inspection. It was also very recent, within the last week. Even on the as-needed box I run the client under tor. I've never gotten these alerts when running the client. - eliaz _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
