Apr 26 18:11:28.706 [notice] Your DNS provider gave an answer for "3ksmgx7pleop6qc.invalid", which is not supposed to exist. Apparently they are hijacking DNS failures. Trying to correct for this. We've noticed 1 possibly bad address so far. Apr 26 18:11:28.897 [notice] Your DNS provider has given "67.215.77.132" as an answer for 6 different invalid addresses. Apparently they are hijacking DNS failures. I'll try to correct for this by treating future occurrences of "67.215.77.132" as 'not found'.

I'll set both SSL3_FLAGS and SSL_OP just to be safe.

Appears to only happen on hup. If tor is stopped completely and restarted, everything works fine.
