Advanced TOR

        Advanced TOR is a client for OR network and is intended to be an improved alternative for Tor+Vidalia+Privoxy bundle for Windows users.
        Before trying Advanced TOR, try the original Tor client (https://torproject.org) and read the available documentation to get familiar with Onion Routing and OR Network. You may find Vidalia easier to use.
        Some of the improvements of Advanced TOR include support for HTTP/HTTPS proxy on same Socks4/Socks5 port, a User Interface which makes all Tor available options more accessible, local banlist for forbidden addresses and the ability to "force" a program and its extensions / plugins to use the Tor proxy regardless of its configured proxy settings. More features will be added in next versions.

Changes

corrected: if LoadLibrary failed in target process, it was still shown as intercepted
corrected: when unloading the AdvTor.dll, UnloadDLL did not wait for PipeThread to finish
corrected: high CPU usage if no running exit nodes were found (thanks to RoLex for reporting this problem)
corrected: system tray menus were not closed when the user clicked outside them
corrected: AdvTor.dll did not always close handles of remote threads
corrected: AdvTor.dll did not always free the memory it allocated in other processes
corrected: AdvTor.dll did not intercept process creation functions if the option to fake local time was disabled
corrected: intercepted processes that were not updated in GUI were not released when AdvTor exited
corrected: intercepting functions in suspended processes sometimes failed
corrected: AdvTor.dll could re-hook same procedure twice if a previous instance was terminated from task manager
corrected: AdvTor.exe will no longer attempt to intercept itself if the user selects it from process list (thanks to RoLex for reporting this error)
if no running exit nodes can be found for selected country, the notification message is shown only once, until a good exit node is found (thanks to RoLex for reporting this problem)
the confusing message "attempt to bypass proxy settings" is replaced with "redirecting connection from address" (thanks to Meka][Meka for reporting this problem)
system tray menu has a new submenu "Release" with all intercepted processes to allow unloading AdvTor.dll from them
AdvTor.dll now shows more information about interception failures
AdvTor.dll no longer loads user32.dll in intercepted processes
AdvTor.dll also intercepts functions gethostbyname, WSAAsyncGetHostByName, gethostbyaddr, WSAAsyncGetHostByAddr (Windows 2000+), getnameinfo, GetNameInfoW, getaddrinfo, GetAddrInfoW (Windows XP SP2+) (thanks to RoLex for helping with tests)
programs that are intercepted by AdvTor will have all DNS queries and reverse DNS queries resolved by OR network
programs that are intercepted can access .onion addresses, AdvTor.dll will resolve them to an IP within range 127.16.* (localhost) and will keep a cache with geneated IPs and corresponding .onion addresses to use in connection requests
process tree also shows PID values when selecting a window
when AdvTor.dll sends a notification about an intercepted process that doesn't respect proxy settings, it also shows the PID for that process (requested by RoLex)
the lists with exit nodes will also have an entry "no exit", for those who want only to see where an intercepted program would connect, but without allowing it to connect or to send anything
added verification for "localhost" so an intercepted process won't try to use OR network to resolve it (Opera resolves "localhost" every time you save a file)
added verification for "wpad" to prevent vulnerable applications from using OR network to resolve it (Chrome, IE, Yahoo Messenger, etc.)
