Using TOR as a client puts you at risk.

I don't really need anonymity, there's nothing I do that can get me caught.

But I read something about TOR exit relays, that if my computer is one such exit relay, I could be implicated for someone else who's doing something illegal, and using my computer as a transit. I looked up the settings in the Vidalia Control Panel, and in Settings > Sharing, the option that is selected is "Run as a client only."

This means I'm not running as an exit relay, right? So I don't need to worry?

Last time I sued tor it screwed up my Internet Explorer.. ( Yes.. I use IE for development /compatibility testing purpose)

I'm using the thing that has a Firefox browser and the TOR program files in it, it automatically connects and opens the browser. I just checked my IE, which I don't use at all, and it seems to be working fine.
