Torfox is a mash-up between the web browser Firefox and the anonymity network Tor. Ideally, it tries completely remove all direct communication between Firefox and the localhost. Instead, all address lookups are done through tor-resolve and all connections are made through tor socks server. Right now the project only works on Windows and relies on some rather ugly hacks at the source code level to achieve the current results which are, even in that light, quite useful.

Similar projects of Tor bundled with a Browser include Torbrowser, Foxtor and XeroBank.
