Abstract

Tor is a popular tool for online anonymity that currently does not have a standard graphical user interface. We present Vidalia, an open source, cross-platform GUI for Tor. We discuss some of the design decisions we have made in Vidalia, as well as what we have found users expect in a Tor GUI.
