Vidalia LogoOpen source, cross platform Vidalia is a Tor GUI that runs on Windows, Linux, and Mac.

Simply put, Vidalia makes it really easy to setup, configure, turn on and off, and configure relays for the Tor network. Complete with bandwidth graphs and network maps, Vidalia should have everything you need to get started and stay on the Tor network.

After installing Vidalia, it is as simple as pointing your browser’s proxy setting to 127.0.0.1:8118 to start using the Tor network.

You can even choose which country to originate your connection from. Don’t get too frisky now. ;)
