    I have heard from several others that encounter problems with a
    he.net tunnel. To circumvent geo restrictions some people use a VLAN.
    To counter this "abuse" content providers block the use of VLANs. A
    he.net tunnel is flagged as a VLAN in this context.

    Are you talking about VPN, not VLAN?

    Still using WinXP without a real firewall?

    BOC. Why use anything else when running a system that is basically MSDOS based? An archaic computer for archaic software.
