TorK allows you to configure, run and update Tor. It also allows you to view the Tor network and choose how you would like to interact with the network.
TorK contains a number of unique/useful features:
* A graph of your tor and non-tor traffic. * A quickstart page for launching torified applications. See https://sourceforge.net/project/screenshots.php?group_id=159... * A hidden services wizard that allows you to create and publish hidden services. * A drag-and-drop view of the Tor network. Create, modify and close circuits. Attach and detach streams manually from circuits. Click on servers to view their full details. * Exit node blocking/preferring by country and server name. See https://sourceforge.net/project/screenshots.php?group_id=159... * Tor and Non-Tor traffic logs - showing you the traffic that is going through Tor and the traffic that is not. The Tor traffic log maintains a record of the circuit you used for each connection. Both logs are maintained in memory only and can be flushed by the user at any time. * A turn-on-and-off-able mini-view that shows you the traffic currently going through Tor - including destination, status, and exit node's name and country. * Passive pop-ups alerting you to important Tor events, such as changes to your server status, DNS leaks, errors reported by Tor. * Quick configuration - six default configurations available for getting Tor running the simple and easy way. * Full access to all Tor configuration options.
