Anyone Heard of Hot Spot Shield

[MK8]

Hi,

As anyone used hotspot shield and peerblock to download torrents?
Is it safe / secure, better than nothing?

Would appreciate any feedback.

Thanks

No replies?

I generally use usenet instead of torrents but resort to torrents when I can't find something on usenet... So am also interested in how well they work...

I've used peerblock for years and never recieved a copyright notice, however loca ISP's don't pass these on so its hard to tell how well it works. Anyway usenet is my preferred method nowadays.
