Hello everyone,

Forgive me if I am posting in the wrong area. I really enjoy torrents over news groups but for some reason, my ISP sometime would send me notes about content it had concerns over. I was using the BTGuard proxy, but still got notices once in a while. I switched over to Giganews and bought the diamond package with VPN. So far its been fine, but searches and ease of use and not fun. I went to BTGuard's website and I see they have a VPN offering. Would that protect me better than BTGuard proxy annd how does it compare to Giganews vpn?

Thanks in advance to anyone who has some insight on this subject.

I DON'T KNOW MUCH..BUT WOULD THIS HELP..??

Lower case matey, its like your shouting the question

I tried BTGuard for a couple of months and was not satisfied with their speeds. I have since switched to Boxpn and was so surprised by their speeds I went out and brought the yearly package. Plus they are unlimited use and give you access to servers all over the world. They also just added a site in Australia which to me is a first.

Make sure the VPN servers aren't located in the US. Even some western european countries have stringent rules.

WHY??
there are no isp woes with usenet!

you might be better suited setting up a usenet BLOCK account for that cost

you are paying WAY TOO MUCH for usenet access if you spend more than $99/year.

use astraweb and hire a vpn separately
unless you like to burn money
