    What's the best VPN product for Vista right now for individual users?

    Quality is more important than price.

    Thanks.

    Anyone?

    The best I've seen appears to be JiWire, but their product doesn't work in Vista.

    Tunnel to where? You need a VPN server to connect to first, talk to your network admin and he should provide the software for you.

    There are private companies that provide VPN services for people who do not have their own network (private or corporate).

    JiWire is one, but their product doesn't work with Vista, and no word when and if it ever will.
