title: Tor StrictExitNodes is not working
body: <p>So, following advice from all over the Internet, including Tor documentation, I'm trying to force US-only exit nodes by editing the torrc file like so:</p>
  
  <pre><code>StrictNodes 1
  ExitNodes {US}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But, I’m still getting exit nodes from Western Europe, Australia, and the US. I’m using the Vidalia bundle, though I’m starting Tor and Polipo from the command line programmatically and executing HttpWebRequests via Polipo. Any thoughts? I really, really need the exit nodes to only be from the US, and I'm really surprised this isn't working. Thanks.</p>
