6/3/2023 0 Comments Tor browser bundle download![]() ![]() I've also come across programs that only recognize socks5:// proxies (without h), yet internally still resolve domain names through the proxy (so no DNS leaks). For example: is the way Tor Browser does stream isolation based on URL-bar domain. ![]() You can also tell tor process to isolate your downloader's stream via SOCKS credentials (username and password) which can be anything you want. 9050 is default SOCKS port of system tor, while Tor Browser uses 9150 by default instead. The h in socks5h:// tell the program that it should remotely resolve domain names. In most cases tor proxy is specified with the following string: socks5h://127.0.0.1:9050 You can tell such a program to connect over Tor, which also allows it to download files from. I know that's not the answer you were looking for, but I recommend just using any "downloader" that supports SOCKS proxies with remote hostname resolving. It doesn't currently do what its name says and as far as I can see it doesn't even support proxies. The project you linked also seems (in its own words) like "a poor man's GNU Wget". That is, unless it would run as a daemon, but then it would act like a system tor process anyway. Such a program would have to initiate its connection to Tor network every time it's started, which would be extremely slow and costly. Are you asking if there exists a standalone program that has tor client baked in - so that you wouldn't need a separate tor process running?
