    Pretend to be American online?

    Allo

    I've heard massive amounts of awesomeness with 'Heroes' and it starts on UK TV next week. Thing is, I HATE waiting and I wanna see it quite badly. Aside from waiting silly amounts of hours to download the episodes I tried to view via npc.com.

    Problem being with me being UK based, I get this:

    Anyone any idea's of a simple way to get around this aside from moving to America!!! lol

    Thanks in advance

    Proxy.
    http://www.grab.cc (example)

    Edit: sometimes browser-based proxies that are written in php/perl wont work. If thats the case, try a proxy from a proxy list (Google it).

    Intersting. That proxy site removed the video content even after removing the stripping, but i'll give the others a shot.

    Thanks

    Be careful to remember that people will and do setup open proxies for the sole purpose of capturing your traffic. ie usernames, passwords, credit card, banking and other such info. Any time you use a proxy you should not transmit anything your not willing to have the rest of the world know.
