Ok.
Don't fret, I will check the link, because it's the first time that I hear about that free browser.

Siempre uso Chrome porque tengo una computadora de solo 10.2 pulgadas, y Chrome no oscurece mucho la pantalla.

Tor is not a web browser. Tor is an onion routing protocol used to protect anonymity on the Internet. You can use Tor with any modern browser and there are even Firefox Tor addons that allow you to enable/disable Tor.

It names Tor browser although it is a part of FireFox but indeed this is not a FireFox.

The Netscape is a good explorer.
I have tried that explorer before and it has likely the features that a normal user need for surf in the internet.

Nonetheless that explorer has the feature of that you can change the script of the website or link in question.

But anyway I go for the use of the Google Chrome is much better.

Firefox has been stupid lately. I am using IE on the desktop, and to be honest, it's all right though I still use Google Chrome

Um... no. The link you sent, first of all, does not name Tor as a browser. Secondly, it is not a part of Firefox either. There is an addon for Firefox that allows one to easily enable/disable the Tor routing system, but Tor itself is NOT a part of Firefox.

I don't like to be so negative but I wish you to stop spreading false information. Tor is not a browser and it is not part of Firefox either. Locally, it is a proxy server that relays all your web requests. Not at all a browser.

Firefox runs on Linux. So does Opera. Besides that, if you use KDE then Konqueror will be built in and it functions as both a web browser and a file manager.

I personally use Firefox on both Windows and Linux.

Tarential, last year i used Tor as a browser, i downloaded it from one russian site and like all browsers and all programs Tor had his own badge, sort of an onion. BTW some part of the interface was from FireFox.

I mean, I'd like to try it. But I need the security that I can use it as a browser secure for me.

Has not virus encrypted the browser?

I know ... what you must have used was Firefox with the Tor addon.

A web browser is an engine that requests files from HTTP (hypertext transfer protocol) servers and renders the HTML code, various plugins like Flash/Java, images (JPG/GIF/PNG/SVG/etc), Javascript, CSS, etc into the "website" you see when you click a link. Firefox is a web browser and can render all of these things using the Gecko layout engine it has built into it.

Tor has nothing to do with rendering pages. Tor is a type of onion routing in which requests you send over the Internet are encrypted multiple times between different routers adding nearly complete anonymization of traffic from a network analysis standpoint (it is still possible to know who is sending the traffic if both endpoints connected to the onion routing network are monitored). Tor works with requests that the web browser sends, providing a layer of potential anonymity between yourself and whatever website you connect to.

... Tor works with the web browser .... The "Tor Browser Bundle" (http://www.torproject.org/torbrowser/) ... uses Firefox, bundled with Tor enabled.

Ok.
I got it.

I believe that the unit way that we will can try the software is installing the software in our computer and try it meanwhile.

Really you can't tell me in this moment if the browser is secure for the our use, because you're infected for some virus, I can recommending you the AVG antivirus as first software for the destroy the virus stored in your computer.

That Antivirus is a good software, I have installed just in two server.
