Tunnelbear?

Anyone in the U.S. get that working for them? Any ill effects on your computer? Is it illegal? (I particularly need to know this because my job disallows me from running any software that is used to circumvent legalities.)

I watched "Trojan" on YouTube (Eor got scared of the title! ;)) but I'd like to be counted in the official numbers as having watched it.

Any luck buying the eps, for those in the U.S.? Are they available in no-proprietary formats for those of us who don't have iTunes?

That live stream link - my computer is telling me I need an application to open that. What app do I need?

Am I going to have to learn to tweet in order to use Tunnelbear? Because I've studiously avoided that.

Do you have windows media player or real Player? That's all you need for the stream.


As for the tunnelbear. No you don't have to tweet... You get 500MB for free with the free account. You only have to tweet if you want more free data.

I probably do have those, but I seem vaguely to recall that every time I use them something bad happens to my computer. I usually use VLC, but that doesn't seem to want to work with this link. Hm. I really should not have bothered you, I'm so non-technical it hurts.

No, no bother at all. Have you done any windows updates or is your computer old? You could try redownloading Real Player, it might not have installed correctly.

The Tunnelbear will work if you are planning on watching it late (Very Late) on Thursday night, after the rush on the Dave site. (we crashed it last week.)

I would only stream it if you plan on turning on the stream and leaving it run for about an hour before the show airs or you are not going to get on it.
