Can't watch Hulu or other Country Specific Sites?
 
Ever had that annoying pop-up telling you that you can't view sites because you're in the wrong country?

Well there is a way around that, just download Hola Unblocker and that pop-up will be a thing of the past!

Adds a clickable Icon to Chrome and Firefox Browsers, I believe it will also work with Internet Explorer as a downloadable programme.

Unlike regular VPN tunnels there is no download limit with Hola. :wavey:

I spent hours yesterday looking for something that would let me watch something on Hulu, i've used things like hotspot shield before but its so buggy it drives me up the wall. Someone told me about media hint which is just an addon for firefox, you don't have to touch it when its installed, just go onto any site that you are ordinarily blocked from and it works like as if its hosted around the corner.

I think its also available for Chrome and probably a few other things

Since I already have Hola installed on my main machine I tried Media-Hint on a laptop, It certainly works for Hulu will try it out on some sites that Hola seems to have difficulty with.

Can't say if it works with BBC iPlayer since I'm already in the UK, perhaps lostalex or someone outside the UK would try it out?

Definitely impressed with media-hint! it unlocks the CWTV network while Hola doesn't!
