I use a paid VPN, costs me $6 pm, I've heard some fee ones are OK but frankly I use it so much its a bargain.

me too, used a few different ones, the free and cheapest can be a bit slow and flakey, IMHO its worth shelling out a little more for better speed depending on what else you are using it for.

You need to install a client such as Vuze (there are many others). This will enable you to download the video files from this site in.

Read this it explains everything from VPNs/proxies and Bit Torrent

Re: BBC's iPlayer

Browsing through the various forums and found that wherever you are living in the world, the telly is one of the most missed things. After 20yrs of missing uk tv I found this http://myiplayer.com/home.php?/british-proxy.php
