First of all: hello to everyone (this is the first time I'm writing)!

About TOR (I don't know if this is OT with respect to the thread subject),
which is the best configuration for a browser?

On torproject.org they strongly suggest the use of the Browser Bundle, but
personally I don't like that much the idea of runnining another instance
of Firefox with its own configuration. Also, reading the website, It's
possible to find a lot of ways for torifying applications[1], but after
reading this article[2], I've start wondering if this documentation is
out-dated.
