    Advanced Onion Router
    Advanced Onion Router is a portable client for the OR network and is intended to be an improved alternative for Tor+Vidalia+Privoxy bundle for Windows users. Some of the improvements include UNICODE paths, support for HTTP and HTTPS proxy protocols on the same Socks4/Socks5 port with HTTP header filtering that generates fake identity-dependent headers every time the identity is changed (proxy chains are also supported), support for NTLM proxies, a User Interface that makes Tor's options and actions more accessible, local banlist for forbidden addresses, private identity isolation, a point-and-click process interceptor that can redirect connections from programs that don't support proxies, also giving them fake information about the local system and support for .onion addresses. Also, it can estimate AS paths for all circuits and prevent AS path intersections, it can restrict circuits to be built using only nodes from different countries, can change circuit lengths and more.

    DAR - Disk ARchive

    DAR - Disk ARchive

    For full, incremental, compressed and encrypted backups or archives

    DAR is a command-line backup and archiving tool that uses selective compression (not compressing already compressed files), strong encryption, may split an archive in different files of given size and provides on-fly hashing, supports differential backup with or without binary delta, ftp and sftp protocols to remote cloud storage Archive internal's catalog, allows very quick restoration even a single file from a huge, eventually sliced, compressed, encrypted archive eventually located on a remote cloud storage, by only reading/fetching the necessary data to perform the operation. Dar saves *all* UNIX inode types, takes care of hard links, sparse files as well as Extended Attributes (MacOS X file forks, Linux ACL, SELinux tags, user attributes) and some Filesystem Specific Attributes (Linux ext2/3/4, Mac OS X HFS+) more details at: http://dar.linux.free.fr/doc/Features.html

    A pronounceable password generator plugin for KeePass. NOTE: This project has been discontinued. It hasn't been worth it to maintain the project for a while now, so no more updates will be made to the plugin. The algorithm this plugin uses is based off FIPS-181 which was withdrawn by NIST a while back. The proliferation of password managers that seamlessly run on multiple platforms (some of which are free) has also removed almost all advantages of using randomly generated pronounceable passwords. If you have a use case for this plugin, reconsider it. If you still think using randomly generated pronounceable passwords are worth it for your use case, reconsider it some more.
