Answer» Hi was not sure where to put this question. I have been watching a UK BBC webcast for the past 8 years and now they have decided to limit access to the site to UK RESIDENTS. I was using Free VPN v 3.2 to continue watching the show, but that seems to have stopped working. Does anyone know of a good alternative with the servers in the UK so I can still access their site? I would prefer 'freeware,' but payware is OK. I suppose I can ask a UK friend to use their computer as a server using something like Comodo EasyVPN, but that means they have to leave their PC on, and they have to configure the VPN software. Cheers for your time Kwisj XP SP3Are you sure this does not breach the terms and conditions of the BBC service? If it did, it might well be a breach of the rules of this site (which you signified having read when you joined) for anyone to HELP you.
Specifically this part

This might be relevant too

Yes, we're that kind of forum.
My apologies kwisj
