have Windows XP Professional with Default Windows Firewall enabled and AVG Antivirus. I'm using Mozila Firefox. The add-on I've installed is Torbutton. To quicly enable and disable Tor by a click. My connection speed is 512kbps Cable Modem with a lynksis router hardwired to provide connection to the internet and still allow me to play my console system. I'm using a POP3 mail program. I have checked the box to have the relay set up. However I've been getting these warnings in my Tor's message log window. I downloaded the Vidalia Bundle from http://www.torproject.org/ which includes a Proxy. Anyway here are the warning messages I keep getting:
Note: The warnings about the OR and Dir ports I get frequently. The rest happened only the once. How do I correct this and what else would you suggest for added hack and security protection to prevent people from finding out where I live. Or damaging my computer. Here's the warnings:
