Re: Best Software to Hide Ip when abroad?

These sites are expecting to see a UK based IP, and possibly in the case of VM player a VM IP. Hiding the place you are connecting from is not the issue.

The only way I can see you getting round this is to do some sort of VPN into a UK server and then connect via that VPN back out to the net. If you could VPN to your home broadband, so much the better - perhaps your router might support such a function?

I believe http://tvcatchup.com/ might work overseas and it shows all freeview channels.

I did use some S/W (can't remember what it was called) to watch US only based programmes and streamed them live to my PC without any lag.

You would probably get away with using a UK based proxy server
