Sorry and i hope you don't mind but could you be very specific about what exactly 'abcd.com' and <fingerprint>.exit mean in real words for me? is 'abcd.com' a site one desires to go to? Then, what is 'fingerprint'? And, where do you find or perhaps i should ask, how do you find this, these fingerprints? Sorry for being so dense. Thanks The "abcd.com http://abcd.com " in that example is any website you want to visit, followed by a dot, the fingerprint of the exit you want your traffic to exit from, and then ".exit". The fingerprint of a router is its unique identifier, and can be found in the "Network Map" window of Vidalia by right-clicking on the desired router's name, selecting "copy", and then "fingerprint". They are also available on the status websites, notably http://torstatus.blutmagie.de So, for example, to visit "torproject.org http://torproject.org " and route your traffic through the "blutmagie" exit, you would enable torbutton and point your browser to http://torproject.org.6297b13a687b521a59c6bd79188a2501ec03a065.exit ~Justin Aplin Thank you Justin. That was very helpful and clear. Really appreciate it.
