Just downloaded the latest portable version, and it asks for admin permission. That is a no no for me.
Looking at the manifest it says: AsInvoker, so i'm not sure why it would ask.

olliebean on 2023-08-26 11:46

I don't know if this is the case in Windows 11, but in Windows 10 the new "Windows 11 style" UI seems noticeably laggier.

Special on 2023-08-26 14:44

Noticed the same thing here, I reverted back personally, and frankly this "change" is enough to keep me from updating to future versions. The dev is very good about these things though, so maybe he'll revert these changes back if he knew there were issues, he's somewhat active (I think) on these here forums.

If it ain't broke...

The screenshot is of the "IP Scanner" part of the program not of the main windows. The IP Scanner is only a "tool" in the app!

I suspect the reason people are claiming this doesn't work is because they are using the proprietary software that came bundled with their wifi card. This only works if you allow Windows to control your wireless network profiles.

Also you need to be doubly aware that most Anti Virus products will see this utility as a threat.
While Nirsoft CAN be trusted, it would be a dangerous tactic to download this from a third party site where it could be re-packaged to include nasties.

Works great. A few times a year I try to hand out my site wireless login and password, and this makes that SO much easier.

Is anybody else getting what looks like Arabic language when launching the installer? I don't want to click on any buttons because I have no idea what they mean.

Several other audio extraction tools I used to rely upon failed on me, but this one worked great. I got exactly the format I was hoping for (Opus) and it downloaded very fast. Wonderfully simple and easy.

CountryTraceRoute helps to diagnose the path and delay of information across the internet. The program is similar to the command-line tracert but much faster. CountryTraceRoute also displays the country of the owner of every IP address found in the traceroute, and ASN Network Carrier information per hop.

After the traceroute is completed, you can select all items (Ctrl+A) and then save them into csv/tab-delimited/html/xml file with 'Save Selected Items' option (Ctrl+S) or copy them to the clipboard (Ctrl+C) and then paste the result into Excel or other spreadsheet application.

How to extract: Download the ZIP package and extract to a folder of your choice. Launch CountryTraceRoute.exe.

Optionally, download and extract the latest: or to the same folder to keep an up to date database to the one contained in the exe.
What's new?
  • Added support for IPv6 addresses.
  • You can choose one of the following IP address modes: IPv4, IPv6, or Automatic.
  • In order to get country/city and ASN information for IPv6 addresses, simply download the desired IPv6 files from https://github.com/sapics/ip-location-db and put them in the same folder of CountryTraceRoute.exe with their original filename. (For example: asn-country-ipv6.csv , asn-ipv6.csv)
  • Added 'Copy IP Addresses' option, which copies the IP addresses of the selected items to the clipboard.

AHA ! CountryTraceroute v1.30 released 30MAY2019

CT finally provides pertinent ASN information, (useful to identify Network Carrier per IP hop),
as presaged by the recent introduction of ASN data in IPinfoOffline v1.50.

Happy conclusion to a looong quest for a coveted feature (began JUNE 2013)...;-)
https://tinyurl.com/y2re454h

Caveat:
Loading the optional Maxmind Geolite2 ASN*.CSV file alone takes about 10 sec(under XP)
or 5 sec(under Win7). Loading all the Geolite2 *.CSV files takes about 28 sec (XP)

Loading time might be considerably reduced in future versions by querying the equivalent Maxmind Geolite2 compiled binaries instead of *.CSV

...Fingers crossed...;-)

Version 4.5.2 available.

smaragdus on 2015-09-05 03:36

I needed to connect to an onion site and downloaded the latest version (5.0.2) but Australis makes Tor Browser absolutely terrible and unusable- I do not want to install heaps of add-ons just to restore features the Mozilla idiots removed. I had an earlier version of Tor Browser (3.6.0- before the advent of the abominable Australis) but the perpetual blinking of the Tor button urging for update is unbearable and cannot be disabled. It can be removed from the tool-bar but this way one cannot acquire new identities.

rbon on 2018-09-22 16:46

Starting from version 8.0 Tor project builds both version of TorBrowser: 32 bit and 64 bit.
