Hi, Currently trialling secureline. It definitely works ok in that it is changing the ip address to the server in the country i want. However, websites with restricted material still know exactly where I am and won't provide what I want to watch.
Can anyone suggest why and what to do? Thanks for any help
Indeed, in my first testing SecureLine does NOT mask country of origin! Check it out, set your VPN server to a different country, send yourself a message and then check the message source... near the top you will typically see two instances of "Received From".... Copy/paste those IP addresses into
http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip-lookup and you will see that both are still in your own country.
On the other hand, while testing from the US with the VPN set to France... When attempting to connect to my Gmail account it rejected my correct password... And a bit later I got a GMail email report about "suspicious activity" from someone in France... In other words, hopefully to the servers the VPN really makes it appear as if it came from another country/location, even though a manual query of an email message source indeed reveals the country of origin...
Can anyone please shed light on this? - Thanks
