    Hello,

    I am messing around with a proxy server to secure my public Wi-fi sessions.

    I currently have Hamachi running and communicating, I can run Remote Desktop sessions and access shares without a problem.

    I tried installing FreeProxy (in fact, I did it over Remote Desktop and Hamachi), per this article:

    The Proxy server seems to be working fine, and I set up my browser, but no go.

    I run Comodo on the host computer (Win 7 x64), and it hasn't thrown me ANY fuss about connections passing through (if any really are).

    Perhaps this method is outdated? That article I referenced is several years old.

    Thanks!
