cheers Smoke.

What are the speeds?

Would love a decent US proxy so I could watch tv shows on Hulu!
Actually, now that I think about it, I'd even be willing to pay for a US Proxy if I could do that!

There is this eagle: http://www.proxykey.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Never used it myself but it claims to have unlimited usage per month and 1megabyte per second speeds (not megabit).

Is FoxyProxy good for watching US Shows on the network websites?

Looks like it costs 8 bucks a month, which is under 6 quid, so worth it imo.

Public proxies are ridiculously slow. The only way to get good speeds and stream video is to use a paid service tbh.

Nah, he was paying for one for the iplayer.

It's more the US ones I want access to though, as I'm worried that the changes to Rapidshare will mean that I won't get my stories on time once the new season starts!

Eagle LOVES his stories!
