Connecting to internet via fee based open network while at Wi-Fi hotspots, airports, 
hotels corporate offices, ISP hubs and coffee shops is not secure. Your personal data like passwords, credit card numbers etc can be hacked by snoopers or hackers. Even standard antivirus software won’t protect you as this threat is on the network, not your laptop or iPhone.
To combat such attacks you should create a shield between your computer and network. AnchorFree provides Hotspot Shield application that keeps your Internet connection secure and anonymous on public networks.
How does Hotspot Shield Works?
Hotspot Shield employed with the latest VPN technology 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. It actually hides your IP address while you are online
Hotspot Shield runs on:
- Windows Vista
- Windows XP
- Windows 2000
- Mac OS X (10.5 Leopard)
- Mac OS X (10.4 Tiger)
