    Hi Vektor,
    I have browse in the folder '\AdvOR\Help\Firefox' the file AdvOR.ini for Firefox and I can't understand the values of parameters used in [torrc] section:
    - AutoStart=3
    - ForceFlags=63
    - Confirmations=12
    - Firefox Portable=63
    What is the meaning of the parameters and releted values?

    Can You explain how to hide my real IP address? I have used this url http://www.whatsmyip.org/ and it's shows my real IP.

    Thanks

    I didn't update the help file for Firefox because I didn't download new versions of Tor Browser from torproject.org.
    If you want to intercept a program at startup you don't need an AdvOR.ini from the Help directory. Read AdvOR.html for more information on how to intercept a program if you don't want to change its proxy settings.

    These values are saved by AdvOR when you check/uncheck some checkboxes in the graphical interface, so you don't need to edit them in the .ini file:

    Values for Autostart:
    1 = connect automatically at startup
    2 = minimize at startup
    4 = start with Windows
    You can combine these settings by adding these values.

    Values for ForceFlags (these are options that will be used when AdvOR will intercept new processes) :
    1 = intercept WinSock functions
    2 = fake local time
    4 = the program is added to QuickStart
    8 = resolve only to fake IPs
    16 = disallow non-TCP sockets
    32 = change program's icon
    64 = exclusive exit
    You can combine these settings by adding these values.

    Values for Confirmations:
    1 = ask for confirmation when the Exit button is clicked
    2 = ask for confirmation only when there are intercepted processes to be released on exit
    4 = when a program is intercepted, AdvOR will verify if it has some opened connections and ask you if you want to close them
    8 = when a program is intercepted, AdvOR will automatically close all its active connections

    Firefox Portable=ForceFlags,commandline - here, ForceFlags has the value it had when it was added to the QuickStart menu
