Title: Dragging and dropping images from FireFox Tor Bundle = Security Risk?
Post by: Xennek on May 13, 2013, 07:15 am
Simple question for Tor Browser experts, is dragging and dropping images from your browser window to the desktop a security risk?

Thanks

I don't think so.  Right clicking and saving images is ok too I believe. You have to worry about downloading pdf files and something else though.

Hopefully someone with better knowledge can inform us.

What comes in TOR should stay within Tor. This applies especially on your obviously low level of computer knowledge.

That wasn't nice. I never claimed to be an expert, and after all, every day is a new opportunity to learn.
