Hi,

Does anyone use a VPN service?

If do, do you use a free one or a monthly pay site?
Any preferences or drawbacks?

Thanks in advance.

I use IPREDator (by PirateBay) its the best.

It costs me 8,335won per month

- however I don't think you can get it now, I applied for it back in March, 2009 when they were offering it to only 3,000 people.

Hey Thanks for that.

I'm looking for something to get UK radio and perhaps some TV.

Happy New Year.

If you only want to get UK radio and perhaps some TV -

then there isn't really any need for a VPN service.

Just use a good proxy like -

http://www.thesafeproxy.com/

(Recommended as very safe by Microsoft and TrendMicro security)

or just use Mozilla Firefox with the "Tors Project" Installed.

couple months back over at eslcafe there was a long thread in the technology section about free vpn's.

I loaded one of them and now my computer's IP address says my computer is in America right now

Hi, Tried thesafeproxy.com, but the site still knows my pc is outwith the UK so refuses to play media. I think tor project will have similar results: I was looking for something to say my pc was in the UK, instead of hiding location all together.

I'm trying the freevpn.com. The search function worked a charm and I found the name.
Thanks fo replying.
