Sure it worked to stream (lag-free) geo-limited UK only content. But didn’t like the .exe files it run’s by force from login. Made a workaround, but this beta is little better than any other proxy. ‘Least for me.

Nice post!
I have tried several free VPN, Astrill is the fatest in my experience.

I think it is good they have their own algorythm. I looked into HTTP traffic incoming and outcoming and it indeed is encrypted. At least its enough to bypass any words filters as no letters are visible.

The account will be free for the beta period, no limitations as far as I know.

This service will sound much more interesting if it has servers in say the Netherlands (where privacy laws are better than the UK or US) or in Turkey where there are no laws or extradition treaties with the West.

How long will the invited version be valid?

Are there any limitations to the beta invite? Is this account time limited for instance?

It certainly is quite simple to use and worked perfectly on Hulu and Pandora.

I’m intrigued, but more than somewhat concerned with Astrill’s suggestion that the traffic is encrypted by “their very own encryption algorithm.” In the world of cryptography, that usually means that they are selling bunk.

Unless they disclose their algorithm somewhere–and it’s a common, accepted one–I would not use this VPN for much.
