 I think in the flashproxy case a wrong classification is ok, since it just
 causes you to try to be a flashproxy even though it won't work very well.
 But in this case thinking you're not Tor when you are will result in a
 misleading warning to the user. So I think they are different situations.
 Do you buy it?
