Comment:

 I confirm this was the user agent. Preferences->Security
 Settings->Headers->Set user agent for Tor usage (uncheck).

 I just watched http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LsxmQV8AXk in HTML5 in FF4
 in Tor on Linux. It totally changed my love life.

 It was easy. I just had to config it.. run a shell script... tweak some
 settings.. update my rpms.. check my version dependencies - probably do
 that once or twice...

 It was just so easy. I can't believe more people don't watch HTML5 videos
 in FF4 over Tor on Linux. Thank god they don't, because then they'd all be
 super-villains...


 I'll update the spoofed user agent of 1.3.3/1.4.0 to match FF4.0 on
 Windows. Wouldn't want anyone to know we're super-villains.
