Screenshots of TorK in action.

Anonymous Browsing With Tork

To start browsing anonymously, click the entry for your favourite browser in the 'Anonymize' tab. TorK recommends Firefox for a number of reasons, mainly because the TorButton extension can protect against a number of anonymity attacks on your browsing activity. If you haven't got TorButton installed, you can do so by clicking 'Install TorButton First' in the entry.

Once you are browsing you will notice your anonymous traffic appearing in the 'Network' tab. You'll also notice a small On-Screen Display (OSD) showing your traffic. This OSD allows you to view the progress of your Tor traffic and also confirms to you that you are indeed browsing anonymously. Notice that 'privoxy' is identifed under the 'program' column, this is because Firefox is using privoxy, a privacy proxy application, to route its traffic through Tor.
