Comodo TrustConnect makes surfing the web safe while at coffee shops, hotels, airports, libraries…anywhere you’re using the Internet, for both wired and wireless connections. It’s a VPN (Virtual Private Network) that encrypts your data so anyone who might want to snag, say, the password to your banking site will instead get a bunch of encrypted data he/she can’t use. This is a great thing to have when you want to use a unsecured network like a public Wifi access point. Comodo is going to be handling your data/traffic though so make sure you trust them before using this. There is a 10 GB a month cap on your data so this really shouldn’t be used too heavily (I’m looking at you, video streaming!), but I think that’s way more than enough for the sensitive stuff like email. As far as I can see it can’t hurt to try this, it is free, so I hope you give it a go.
