Proxies for other countries

I was searching for a solution for testing some websites, emulating my location. I wanted to pretend that I was, for instance in Italy.

This task was difficult, because there are many "proxie" lists in the internet, but many of those proxies do not work, or are very slow.

Even some payed services offer a monthly list os proxies, however these lists usually have 1/3 of the proxies working, so it's not really an option!

After searching a lot, I found this provider: overplay which is a vpn provider serving over 20 countries and giving the possibility to visit other sites with an another country IP.

As they say, this is interesting if you are testing websites, or services, or even when you are trying to buy online in a different country that will filter your IP address (or does not accept your credit card because you are visiting the website from a different country).

This service also provides encrypted connection that protects your data while browsing the internet or making a transaction. Let's see how it works.

From what i've seen they are now giving access to many European countries: Spain, France, Italy, Dutch, Germany, United Kingdom, Poland, Ireland, Norway, Denmark, Swiss and Sweden. There are also non-European countries like Australia, Japan, United States of America, Canada, South Korea, Brazil and many others.

----> Update: tried this software, works very well, however the offer (free month if you post with a link) is not working!
