Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this program for the wireless security feature that lets you encrypt the data sent via your laptop's wireless signal to Anonymizer's servers. I thought this would be a useful security feature when accessing bank accounts and other sensitive information from my laptop computer. Unfortunately, Anonymous Surfing does not work with banking websites since they are unable to place a valid security certificate (remember, the traffic is being routed via Anonymizer's proxy servers, so the website cannot place the certificate on your computer). For that reason, I can only access banking websites with Anonymous Surfing turned off, which in my eyes defeats one of the most important purposes for having a wireless security feature.
Another gripe is that Anonymous Surfing will slow down the speed at which webpages are loaded, which is particularly noticeable with a broadband internet connection. I guess Anonymizer's proxy servers are just not able to relay pages quickly enough to your computer.
Given that the program REQUIRES AN ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTION FEE of $29.99 (first year of service is included witht he program), I'll rather save that money and continue to access my banking and financial websites via a wired connection.
