Once you are online, your pc or laptop (both wireless and wired) is susceptible to attacks by hackers. Your personal information, credit cards, SSN, password can be intercepted as you send the data across to a website. Hotspot Shield can keep your Internet connection secure and anonymous on public networks. According to the website, “Hotspot Shield creates a virtual private network (VPN) between your laptop or iPhone and our Internet gateway. This impenetrable tunnel prevents snoopers and hackers from viewing your email, instant messages, credit card information or anything else you send over the network.” Hotspot Shield runs on windows (Vista, XP, 2000) and Mac OS X (10.5 Leopard and 10.4 Tiger)

Hotspot Shield works by opening your default browser and assigning you an VPN IP (Virtual Private Networks Internet Protocol ). I think it opens your browser to link to their website.

PRO: It protects your by assigning an IP to you

CON: It acts as an advertisement medium. It puts, a javascript ad on the top of the browser.
