Just as a reminder, the problem with Flash and Javascript is not only
that they might be able to cirvumvent network settings. Both can gather
local information and give it away - in that case it doesn't matter if
the channel itself is anonymous.

I have always been disturbed by the fact that javascript or flash can sidestep
tor and give away your real IP. Is there truly no way to control one's own
computer so that any and ALL traffic that goes out to the ethernet port or wlan
gets directed through tor no matter what? Can any combination of software and
hardware prevent software on one's own computer from acting the way someone
else wants rather than as the owner wants? I would love to be able to use
javascript and flash (some site require one or the other or both to be
functional) and know that ANY traffic that exits my own system WILL be directed
through the tor network.
