I've been hearing some pretty good stuff about HMIP and as the proxy surfer I currently use is not working very well, I downloaded a copy and installed.
I don't have a license key - thought I'd try it out first
Installed ok but when I try to run I get the error as per attached screen-shot
I'm on an XP system with net 3.5 SP (presumably service pack upgrade)
Any comments highly appreciated
When the software has a problem connecting to the verification database, there are 2 areas of concern:
1. We are having a temporary problem on our end
2. There is something in your computer (i.e. a firewall, anti-virus, anti-spyware program) blocking the software's ability to access the Internet.
If you are continuing to experience the issue, please write to staff@hide-my-ip.com and they will definitely assist you.
