How To Hide Your IP Address In A Smart Way With SmartHide (50 Accounts Available)

Arovax SmartHide is an excellent solution for complete anonymity and protection while staying online. Here is a short tutorial on how to use it and how you can get one of the 50 Smarthide Shared USA accounts.

SmartHide exposes 2 core features:

1) It protects your identity by hiding your IP address;
2) It encrypts your current network connection.

The application is not intended to change IP address many times, but to hide IP address using one of secure servers to give every user a protected anonymous surfing.

How to install and use SmartHide

SmartHide has a very easy-to-use interface and is very simple to setup. The first step you need to do is to register for one of the available packages:

  • Personal Subscription ($14.95/month)
  • Prepaid License – ($9.95 – 1 month)
  • Regular Subscription ($9.95/month)
  • Then, you need to access the Members Area. After the authorization you can download the latest paid version of Arovax SmartHide. During the install you will be required to enter your login and password.

    As I previously said, the user interface is very intuitive. You need to choose an IP address/location and then press Make me invisible. When you need to return to the normal browsing press Make me visible button.

    The available IP addresses are from United States, United Kingdom, Germany and Malaysia. The last ones did not work for me, but the US servers are quite good (as you can see below in the speed test results). I was able to even watch Hulu smoothly.

    Speed test for US server:

    SmartHide allows port forwarding. Port Forwarding is a technology, which allows connecting from the Internet to your local Computer behind NAT (NAPT). The access is achieved by means of directing traffic of certain Ports from external IP address of a router to a chosen computer in the local network.  

    Such forwarding is necessary if you, for example, use peering networks or are in need of setting up a server with access to internet on a local computer. Also port forwarding is often needed for multiplayer online games (MMOG).

      Hi;

      I’m so excited with this promo of 50 shared accounts here! Please count me in!
      I cannot at the moment avail of a paid service since I’m in a fix due to the economy gone sour, and being new to IP anonimity I try to learn from promos like this and trhu intercation between users.

      I have used a couple of free ones but they always have a catch on things and feels not safe enough. Maybe with Avorax I will be safer up until I can purchase a paid account.

      Thanks guys!
