Re: [tor-talk] (no subject)
No, I don't want to run 1 instance of TBB. I wan't to run a few instances of TBB, but all with an other IP-adress. Like you can make profiles in firefox. So you can log in with different accounts at a site. But all the accounts must own an own IP.

It doesn't choose how to connect - it only opens a profile you select (either from existing ones, or new one(s) you create), and uses the file & path you specify, to which ever version of Fx you want to use.

For purposes of developing a browser fingerprint so you can be identified later on the same site, or at other sites run by the same people, or that are monitored by tracking companies / "profile builders."
