How to prevent TOR Vidalia from changing my IP? -


i want manually change visible ip in vidalia, not automatically every x minutes. how in windows or linux?

basically not possible directly in vidalia. tor designed in way public facing ip address change approximately @ every ten minutes. there »hacks« might work.

vidalia allows choose »new identity«. when click on button you'll new public facing ip address (exit relay in tor terms). can change ip address within ten minute period.

however if want keep ip longer amount of time specific site (say stackoverflow.com), have fiddle around torrc. can insert following line:

trackhostexits stackoverflow.com 

now tor try use same exit ip address 30 minute period. option trackhostexitsexpire allows change time frame. default set 1800 (seconds).

another useful option exitnodes. when enter torrc fingerprint or name of 1 single tor exit, tor use exit. visible ip address not change long don't change value , restart tor. should avoid using 1 or few exits because might degrade anonymity.
