Yesterday I was trying to buy some computer hardware (see my recommended vendors page for where to buy), and the Google Checkout was giving me an error on the SSL certificate with an alert message.
I tried several times to no avail, and was frustrated at the waste of time; I needed the hardware.
So I thought, hey, why don’t I try it through GoTrusted secure vpn? So with a quick right click on the icon in the system tray followed by a click on “connect session”, I was surfing anonymously but more importantly, securely.
Sure enough, I tried Google Checkout once more and it went right through.
Do I pretend to know exactly why? Nope. But I do know that there really isn’t any reason for me NOT to access the web with GoTrusted all of the time.
Why don’t you check it out with the GoTrusted Free Trial.

Free anonymous web surfing sites allow you to bypass work filters by fetching the website’s data themselves, and then sending it back to you through the free anonymizer. These free anonymous surfing sites are powered by software that resides on the server. Not only do they allow you to circumvent filters put in place by network administrators, they also protect your online privacy by masking your IP Address, thus allowing you to surf the web anonymously. When you surf without a free anonymizer, your computer is exposed to all types of potentially harmful content (like viruses and spyware), and your personal information can easily be recorded by data trackers, effectively eliminating any privacy at work.
Anonymizers do NOT protect you from malware/viruses, but they do add a level of privacy.
