    I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on ProXPN?

    I used it for about an hour and had 3 odd IPs try to connect to my Machine

    "201.240.105.80" "64.76.24.70" "77.112.42.166"

    I told proXPN about the issue and all they had to say is I probably have a "spam sending virus" on my machine, so I analyzed loads of my network traffic with WireShark and I don't see anything odd entering or exiting my machine, and I also scanned my machine the other day and 100% clean, plus I use OpenDNS so wouldn't OpenDNS alert me to BOT activity? It sure did back in January when I was playing around with unsafe software from a warez site in a VM.....

    what a coincidence, I only had these issues wile using proxpn, these issues are Obsolete when I'm not using XPN.

    I concluded I am Clean after 30min of analyzing my traffic. (with ProXPN turned off)

    I also had 4.2.2.1 & 8.8.8.8 show up in my firewall logs wile using proXPN, one is Google Public DNS and the other is Level 3 Communications? I don't know anything about this? I'm not a VPN pro..

    Can somebody input their thoughts on the subject please?
