tor installation
 

hi i use gutsy and have downloded tot software.when i tried to install it,it flagged a message that it may contain malicious programs.is it safe to install such softwares???

Have you downloaded the source code, or a compiled package?

hi
 

its a package....

did you use your package manager?

I would probably not install the software after such a warning. It may be that someone has tampered with the package. Where did you download the package from?

Just being curious, what *exactly* was the message? Which *application* showed you that message? If the package is covered by a MD5 or SHA1 sum or GPG signature, did you try to verify its integrity manually? That said, TOR is not a malicious application.
