Torbutton Description

A Firefox add-on that allows you to easily enable/disable Tor Torbutton provides a button to easily enable or disable the browser's use of TorTorbutton is a 1-click way for Firefox users to enable or disable the browser's use of Tor. It adds a panel to the statusbar that says "Tor Enabled" (in green) or "Tor Disabled" (in red). The user may click on the panel to toggle the status.If you change proxy settings, all changes will be reflected in the statusbar.Some users may prefer a toolbar button instead of a statusbar panel. Such a button is included, and one adds it to the toolbar by right-clicking on the desired toolbar, selecting "Customize...", and then dragging the Torbutton icon onto the toolbar. There is an option in the preferences to hide the statusbar panel (Tools->Extensions, select Torbutton, and click on Preferences).Newer Firefoxes have the ability to send DNS resolves through the socks proxy, and Torbutton will make use of this feature if it is available in your version of Firefox.NOTE: The Torbutton add-on is cross-platform and it works on Mac OS X, Windows and Linux.
