HideMe VPN is a virtual private network program for Windows PCs.

It's getting harder and harder to stay anonymous on the internet these days. Even if you've got nothing to hide, you still don't want someone watching every step you make. Some people want a VPN so they can conduct activities without their government or ISP watching them. Others want a VPN so they can feel secure in their connection. Whatever the reason, VPNs are becoming more popular. One such popular program is the HideME VPN, which has become well-known among users in areas that have especially strict internet control.

HideMe VPN is, as you might expect, a VPN that was built with privacy in mind. It works to hide a user's IP address and encrypt his or her data, allowing access to sites that might otherwise be blocked. In most cases, this means users can get to sites like Youtube without worrying about censorship - a nice bonus for those in countries that have heavily censored media. This is also a program that recognizes that internet use can present a danger to some, so it goes the extra mile to keep customer information secret. You won't have to send in any registration or identifying documents to use the program.

If there's a downside, it's that the program isn't free. It does offer a seven day trial, but you'll have to pay to use the program past that. If you're really looking to get online and someone is trying to stop you though, it's worth the cost. It can be difficult to use the internet freely in some places, but HideMe VPN helps users to reclaim that bit of freedom from those who would take it.
