After i click the "Use a New Identify" button on Vidalia, i will get a new proxy ip. Can tor change ip automatically?

My program needs random proxies, so the server will not block the connection.

You could modify "/etc/tor/torrc" or in "path/to/your/torbrowser/Data/Tor/torrc" to cycle proxies faster:

MaxCircuitDirtiness NUM

Feel free to reuse a circuit that was first used at most NUM seconds ago, but never attach a new stream to a circuit that is too old. (Default: 10 minutes)
