pH5,

Thank you. That worked for me. For anyone else attempting to try the same thing here is what I did:

1: Installed rootsh (from extras http://maemo.org/downloads/product/Maemo5/rootsh/)

2: In the Command Line, typed "sudo gainroot"

3: Navigated to /etc/tor/torrc

4: Copied torrc to my home directory

5: Edited torrc in my home directory with Leafpad (text editor)

6: Added theses 2 lines to end of the file:

ExitNodes server1, server2, server3
StrictExitNodes 1


7: Replaced server1, server2 and server 3 with UK exit nodes (found from http://proxy.org/tor.shtml)

8: Saved torrc

9: Copied torrc back to /etc/tor/torrc

Everything worked!

It would be nice if there was a way to edit the config file from the Tor Applet, but hopefully the exit nodes do not change too frequently.

Thanks again for your help.
