Re: Making sure that I'm secured

You may want to look at JanusVM or Tor VM.  Instead think about re-directing everything to use Tor.

These solutions do that, and work with any application.

I'm using the Tor+Firofox browser bundle downloaded at torproject.org. I setup a virtual Windows XP machine under my normal OS (using VMWare) and I'm doing all my private browsing under that machine.

I need to use an rss reader, but can't use a web based one (like google reader) since I have _javascript_ disabled.

I decided to use an application (like sharpreader) for rss, I configured it to use the Tor proxy and it seems to be using it (since it fails to connect when I stop Tor). But I want to be %100 sure it doesn't make any direct connections.

Do you have any suggestions to make sure that nothing escapes outside except Tor itself? Is there any way to close all outgoing ports except for Tor under Windows XP Pro?

Thanks
