security software or installing an older version of Tor. Can any one
please provide more information or a better solution for someone not
expert in using Tor and security combined on the net please? Will be
highly appreciated since it seems to me that it may be better not to use
Tor in this condition.

that is interfering with Tor Browser. I know some Tor people are trying to
contact Trusteer, but as a user of their software you should contact them
as well (the may listen to their customers more than they listen to Tor
Project people).
I appreciate your comments. It would be great if you could give some
advice or reference (blog, article?) as for the configurations that best
suit a requirement for privacy and security for the common man who works
and trades with leverage on the Net. For instance can I use some "software
mix" that in the experience of the people in this community would be
usefull and/or recommended considering commercial software like MS
Windows? (for instance Win 10, Tor 6.5, and some security software that
you already know is more reliable than Trusteer?) Or should I consider
acquire more skills in the world of Open Source utilizing a mix like a
Linux distribution, Tor x.x, something else to have a more secure, private
use of web services and information?
Best Regards!
