I tried to post this to the old thread about protecting your anonymity if the VPN connection drops,...
Well I have now tried changing my DNS to Google DNS, and that didn't work. Hotspot continued to localize my searches. Now I changed it to Open...
Well, so it's necessary to change your DNS settings as well as to connect to a VPN? And if you don't, it's pointless to even use a VPN? Why the...
I did clear the cache before testing. How do I know if Firefox is set to compare the page to the one in the cache?
Caspian, I'm not using a satellite, I am almost always using Wifi. It's a hotel's wifi. Well I ran your DNS test and the results are troubling....
I've never tried Janus, though I've heard about it. It uses Tor, doesn't it? That's why I didn't try it before, because Tor is too slow. Or is it...
That's not the point, doktor. Yes, google.com/ncr will always take you to the English language page. The point is, how the hell does Google know...
Firefox is lying. I installed Firefox 4.0 recently and Geolocation was enabled by default. FF never asked me to opt in.
I just tried Security Kiss for the first time. It took me to the US google page. I don't trust Hotspot at all anymore. Are there any other free...
Today Hotspot is back to its old tricks, taking me to the localized Google page despite deletion of all cookies. I then deleted cookies again...
I just went there, that site is telling me I am anonymous, with IP address in US. I think ProXPN always gives me a US address. I will look...
that's a good idea. I will try it. but the problem is that today, Hotspot Shield is behaving correctly, and taking me to the US Google page....
Yes, I've sometimes gotten the English page with a link to go to the localized page, which is also disturbing and unacceptable. So you think this...
Hi, I no more. When I visit that site and click IP address I get the information that my IP is in Houston, Texas. That screen only lasts for 2...
Just tried Opera. It's doing the same thing.???
On several occasions, when I've connected to Hotspot Shield and get an IP address in the US or other country, and go to google.com, Google still...
Hi Hierophant and others. Sorry to bring back this old thread from the dead. I've been busy and have just gotten around to trying to set up the...
Thanks dumpydonk. it's good to know that Tor has no problem. Perhaps I shouldn't have mentioned Tor in my original post, since I haven't used it...
Hiero, Wonderful that you were able to confirm this. Did you also confirm that the firewall blocked Flash and Java from bypassing the VPN and...
Thanks Hiero. I had thought that OpenVPN was a free VPN network, not just software. So I guess UltraVPN is the free network, not OpenVPN. So if...
Arran, I googled it quickly and came up with only this: StrongVPN Forum / Firewalling your PC to only use the VPN connection...
Hiero, I don't know what Wireshark is, but is there a method or program or website that lets you see exactly the info that your ISP sees and...
Maybe so, but they are only talking about controlling flash cookies. I doubt that Adobe will do anything about another huge Flash privacy issue --...
Hiero, I did not realize that you could use Xerobank with OpenVPN. Googling it, I see that there are two ways: XB Portable OpenVPN:...
Arran, The question of whether you can solve this problem with a simple firewall configuration is one that I am very interested in. Can you...
