Additional protection during banking

For people who wish to do banking with sensitive or confidential information, add a banking mode for bank websites and payment gateways. Either can be enabled manually, or automatically when detects a list of know banking/payment gateway websites. This adds an additional layer of protection against real time zero hour exploits that THOR may have missed. No security is perfect so this gives an additional peace of mind too.

Simple really, just block every other connection besides the connection to the bank/payment gateway, and THOR itself of course. Additionally, if THOR detects a suspicious connection attempt while banking mode is active, it can alert the user and the user can choose to continue blocking traffic until THOR can confirm that it has successfully stopped the data from trying to leak.That way, your data will be protected even when you are done with your business, as malware can simply keep logs and send out that data later if there is no internet connection detected at the time.
