Hotspot Shield creates a virtual private network (VPN) between your laptop or iPhone and our Internet gateway. This impenetrable tunnel prevents snoopers, hackers, ISP’s, from viewing your web browsing activities, instant messages, downloads, credit card information or anything else you send over the network. Hotspot Shield security application is free to download, employs the latest VPN technology, and is easy to install and use



I have been using this for a week now and it.s been fine. Might be of use to some people.........and best of all.........tis free innit !!

Msg 4 Ataturk too late for me! downloaded & installed it - was inundated with pop up ads! went to control panel & removed program, did a 'system restore' to time before I installed it, rebooted & guess what - I'm still getting the pop ups! that'll teach me!



DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS PROGRAM!

Msg 7 Excuse me but I am certainly NOT talking crap! My system was clean and I have up to date anti virus installed and scanning regularly. On installing this programme I immediately started getting pop up ads. I simply tell it as it is - if you don't want constant pop ups across the top of your screen (which maybe some people don't mind) DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS PROGRAMME!!!

steveafc,

it may not be 'Malware', but the download certainly contains 'Adware', - see this comment from

http://download.cnet.com/hotspot-shield/ ....

"Hotspot Shield is ad supported, so you'll get a big banner ad that lives at the top of every Web page, too."

They also make this positive judgement -

"Hotspot Shield is the most stable and the only 100 percent free VPN tool in the world with no bandwidth limit and it does not slow down the Internet speed. Hotspot Shield does all of this without collecting, let alone making use of, any information on your personal identity."

So it depends partly on the efficiency of your pop-up blocker, and partly on whether you want a 'free' VPN, or whether you're willing to pay for one...

If it sounds like it is too good to be true, in my experience it is.
