        There is a problem with the formatting on the page there is an extra space in this line.
        Code:
        gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv 94C09C7F
        See the link below. The command also timed out on me a few times but just keep trying and you'll get it.

          The howto isn't complete either you need to install privoxy.

          sudo apt-get install privoxy

          Then follow the instructions on this page and install Torbutton addon to firefox.

                  No, it doesn't mean that. Tor usually uses one connection for a while, so you IP address won't change and you'll still be limited.
                  For external use only.

                    Oh ok. I got happy for a second but it seems to work when i switch between FoxyProxy and Torbutton. So i get double download instead of the regular 3 cause they both seem to use different IP addresses. Its a lot better than before.
