Well, well, here is a reason not to use tor browser bundle (and to update my tor if you didnt yet)

This is because DNS will still be working as usual - not through tor. If you attempt to browse to example.org then you will be telling that to your DNS provider (typically your ISP). In addition this means you can't access .onion sites by default.

Perhaps it would be a good idea for this tor package to set up TorDNS[1], potentially changing /etc/resolv.conf to point to it.
