pickaproxy.com and geospoofing.com will be offering this functionality as a server-side service - you will be able to choose an exit node in country/state/city/ISP/Org so that the server can then setup a long-lived Tor circuit for you - you will then be advised on how to configure your workstation proxy settings, with regard to port number and domain/host name. This does not require you to install Tor on your machine, or to upgrade it when new versions come around. Nor will Vidalia or Privoxy be required on the workstation.
We will offer options to use stunnel or OpenVPN connections to our server (your proxy). And we're looking at using polipo (on the server) to speed things up. We have multiple sources of geolocation data so they will be more accurate than the open source GeoIP library - we pay for them where the license requires us to. . . .

TorK uses geoip to offer a 'Citizen Of' feature, where you choose the country you want to 'browse the internet from', i.e. use exitnodes from only that country. -- Browse Anonymously Anywhere - http://anonymityanywhere.com TorK - KDE Anonymity Manager - http://tork.sf.net KlamAV - KDE Anti-Virus - http://www.klamav.net
