does tor protect from isp reading your email?

or knowing you are accessing it

 

and can someone post just tor.exe

 

As long as the mail software is setup to use Tor, and your browser is setup to use the DNS service (not of your ISP, but) of the exit node, and since the Tor requests are encrypted - then your email should not be vulnerable to ISP inspection, either knowing that you are reading email (unless it is from the ISP's webmail server), or otherwise.

Posting just for Tor.exe makes no sense - I do understand that it is relative to a Widows versionf Tor, but that should make not difference.

How about webmail as yahoo etc ( without or with https-is then perhaps tor unecessary) and how do you set up browser to use dns service of the exit node(with detail please)
Tried latest TOR bundle from tor website but tor.exe does not start from vidalia,so tried the previous version 0.2.6.-starts fine but says it is outdated for the current network

 

Download the Tor expert bundle. Not sure why it's called a bundle when it just contains Tor. Download links on this page.

 

Hi montanglo,

Make sure Firefox has the Torbutton add-on, and when Tor is enabled via Torbutton that network.proxy.socks_remote_dns is set to true (open about:config) and paste it in the filter near the top of the web page - ignore and click on the warning button about warranty.
