Question Hotspot Shield equivalent


Hi all,

Anyone know Linux equivalent? I've been itching to dump XP in at least one of my boxes but a not-so-complicated way to get to sites blocked by the great effin wall (e.g. Facebook, Blogspot)remains a sticking point.

Thanks,

Bxb

Isn't that content-filtering software? I was looking for the opposite.

Looked at Xerobank... ugh, way too expensive for me. Tor was a PITA and problematic. Haven't tried Ultrasurf (don't even know if it will work with Linux) but I have been hearing some disturbing things about it... hmmm... anyone know anything else?

Can you give me an inkling of what exactly it is you're trying to achieve? Just I've never used this 'hotspot shield' thing before so....
