Tor 0.1.2.18 is released

Tor 0.1.2.18 fixes many problems including crash bugs, problems with
hidden service introduction that were causing huge delays, and a big
bug that was causing some servers to disappear from the network status
lists for a few hours each day.

We also modified the default Privoxy config files in the bundles to
avoid some security problems, so make sure to leave "install Privoxy"

Bundle users should upgrade. People using Privoxy in other

The Tor 0.1.1.x branch is now officially obsolete and unsupported.
