Hi guys are there any Tor users onboard ?

I'd been using it since sometime and now I can't connect to the Tor network, so wanted to know if this is an isolated issue or are all users facing the same problem.

Is there a work around or an alternate software ?

btw i'm on Vidalia 0.2.15
 
acquiring the latest one i.e Tor Bundle 0.2.2.35 through a friend, will check and post back.

vivek bro, do post if it works for you and your bundle version.
 
Used that in college to bypass proxy

. Still being used now i suppose. Can inquire about it if you want.
 
damn the new one throwing the same issue, stuck at "establishing an encrypted directory connection"

^^buddy please do enquire, and update here, would be much help

How do you connect to net ?? Try disconnecting > restart system > reconnect to net > retry TOR
 
No luck, tried rebooting and reconnecting, now it is stuck at the first step itself - " connecting to tor"

have put it in hide and letting to work through.

btw i connect through the access points provided by my college. (WiFi)
 
Now i'm on the latest version Tor Bundle 0.2.2.35

I get connected for very short periods after long hours of wait so I don't believe it is a port issue as if it were that I would not be able to connect at all.

Although I haven't changed any settings to my antivirus and firewall because the same settings allowed me to connect to tor earlier, still I tried connecting after shutting down all protection but

still no luck
 
What port does this works ? Check whether the port is opened by netstat -a
 
port is set to 9051 in the application, and by netstat i get "established" as the state

for all tor related ports it is showing established.

I even got connected in the evening for a brief period
 
came across an alternative application called : Ultrasurf.

anyone who is blocked to Tor like myself can switch to this and enjoy free internet.

although i am not sure about privacy issues on this application so stay cautious.
