Hi, I'm happy to announce a new Firefox extension which is built with Tor in mind from the ground up.
FoxyProxy - http://foxyproxy.mozdev.org I took the things I liked about SwitchProxy, TorButton, ProxyButton, QuickButton, xyzproxy, etc. and added a number of crucial features: * Tor Wizard - now zero configuration to use Firefox with Tor * Define proxy use based on URL patterns using wildcards and/or regular expressions: now you can route *.onion domains and web mail accounts (gmail, yahoo, etc) through Tor but not CNN and Slashdot, for example, without having to constantly change Firefox's proxy settings. * Define multiple proxies * No more wondering whether or not a URL loaded through a proxy: FoxyProxy includes a complete log of all URLs loaded, including which proxy was used, which pattern was matched, timestamps, etc. * Temporarily or permanently dedicate all URLs to go through a particular proxy * Temporarily or permanently disable use of a proxy * FoxyProxy hooks directly into Firefox via XPCOM--this yields much greater performance than the de facto standard of updating about:config preferences programmatically (used by every other proxy extensions I could find) * Lots more I hope you enjoy it. I look forward to your comments. Sincerely, Eric H. Jung
