If the Windows DNS server is configure to route into 127.0.0.1 (tor-dns-proxy) or 127.1.2.2 (TorDNS-Localhost) then a packet filter should not be required correct?

Even if a broken app used it's default, wouldn't the Windows DNS server _force_ the app to use the configured Windows DNS server address?

Setting the "Preferred DNS Server" in Network Connetions should force all DNS quaries into the specified address, correct?

Thank you, Anogeorgeo
