 I am trying to set the TOR service to use certain exit nodes.

 When I run Vidalia, my configuration loads perfectly and it works great
 only exiting from the nodes I specify.

 When I run the Windows service however, it seems to load a default
 configuration and exits from anywhere it wants. I have edited the torrc in
 my %appdata% and installed the service with the option flag to load the
 torrc file in the TOR root directory. Nothing.

 Please help.
