Routing all network traffic through a socks TOR proxy.
How to install
[1] Download TOR browser
[2] Specify the TOR binary path to TorShield
[3] Let your IP address be changed
Info
The script basically changes global proxy settings and enviroment variables using system commands and eventually api calls. Theres a known issue that windows socks routing may not work due to unknown reasons, however it may work on your machine. You can check if socks settings work using the command curl ifconfig.me which returns your IP address.
FAQ
Does it protect all apps, not only browser?
Yes it does, socks proxy routes all applications traffic
Are there any known issues?
Yes, socks proxy may not work on windows for unknown reasons, also theres a problem if you use git, you'll have to disable proxy for it after you stop using TorShield by typing following commands in cmd:
git config --global --unset http.proxy git config --global --unset https.proxy
Are you going to continue developing this project?
With new TOR browser updates I may update this script depending on new TOR features
