Tor Browser

rhorstkoetter

hi,

Sophos Anti-Virus' Web Protection prevents Tor Browser to connect to the Internet. Now, Tor neither is a malicious website nor a malicious download, but actually an essential privacy/anonymity tool for a lot of people around the world. I would kindly like to ask you to patch Sophos Anti-Virus to actually work with Tor Browser out-of-the-box. That is to say, without disabling Web Protection altogether.

Sophos Anti-Virus 9.0.11

Tor Browser 3.6.1

OS X Mavericks 10.9.3

thanks for your consideration and for providing Sophos Anti-Virus.

    What version of Tor Browser are you using?  Is it prompting for an update...

    Tor Browser 3.6.4-MacOS is the lastest (as of writing), but I originally had Tor Browser 3.6.2-MacOS installed - however that worked too.  Can you make sure you're on the lastest version of Tor browser and post back what version of TOR browser you currently have and if an upgrade resolves the problem?
