Prox Network Free PPTP VPN Access

Prox Network are now testing VPN access for their users. Prox Network is a network of proxy servers to provide anonymity on the internet. The network currently provides anonymity to an estimated amount of 600000 monthly visitors. VPN access allows you to fully anonymize your Internet connection whereas a webproxy only anonymizes web browsing. Services such as Skype, File sharing, Web browsing, Online games and Instant messaging and many others are anonymized.
You can see the Prox Network official announcement and their free VPN info at http://proxnetwork.com.
These are the reasons you should select a VPN, not a proxy:

1. VPN anonymizes and encrypts all communications over the internet. Not just web browsing as is the case with proxy solutions. VPN protects emails, VOIP, chat applications…. i.e. ALL your Internet traffic.
2. Wireless Hotspot protection. VPN protects your security for WIFI Connections (hotels, airports…).
3. Subject to the quality of the supplier, VPN has a high connection speed.
4. VPN is a solution to geographic restrictions. You can use a VPN to watch Hulu videos outside the U.S.
5. With PPTP VPN solution you don’t need to install any software as clients are provided with most Operating Systems or mobile devices.
6. VPN is more stable and reliable than a public proxy.
In summary, proxy services DO have a use, but they have limitations and risks attached. Reliable paid VPN services will generally have a cost attached to them. You must judge for yourself if the added security and convenience provided is worth that extra cost.
