Ladd 0 Posted February 12, 2017 Report Share Posted February 12, 2017 New TorGuard user here, Mac platform. Would someone please explain what this plug-in does and, if I install it, do I need to change any configurations elsewhere? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Would someone please explain what this plug-in does and, if I install it, do I need to change any configurations elsewhere? Hello, welcome to the forums! The plugin funnels all your browser traffic through TorGuard's SSL proxies. All you need to do is install it, pick a location to connect to, then you'll get a authentication box that will pop up asking for your credentials. That's it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ladd 0 Posted February 12, 2017 Report Share Posted February 12, 2017 Thanks or the reply. OK, I have the extension installed and running. Any way to set this up so that it will log in automatically every time I start up Firefox? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Any way to set this up so that it will log in automatically every time I start up Firefox? Unfortunately there is no way to do this currently with the Firefox Add-on. It's probably on the developer's todo list since it already exists in the Chrome extension. If you want to go that route, here is all you need to do: Enter your login details and hit Save Open Settings Enable Always On and hit Save Now whenever you start Chrome you will automatically be connected.

If someone is connected to Torguard through the app, why the need for this extension? Hi Peter You wouldn't need the extension if using the VPN of course - if you only want to secure the traffic within the browser then its a good option, it can also be used as a second layer additional to the VPN, its handy if you are unable to install any software in work environments or in limited accounts etc. Regards Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Support 242 Posted July 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2017 I use AVG, any known issues with that? AVG can do to yes, can you for testing sakes, remove AVG, reboot and retest the extension. If you have any mail security running on AVG try disable that first before uninstalling.
