Try troubleshooting the installation by ensuring you have sufficient disk space, disabling any conflicting software, and running the installation as an administrator.

You will have 30 cents per month if you choose to upgrade to a two-year subscription. However, the discount will be $20 for a two-year and $10 for a one-year. To find more information about the possible discounts offered by the developers, access the page below.

If the Hotspot Shield does not bypass filters, then use Tor Browser Bundle. Download and install the applicationt. Wjhile connecting you will see a green onion and then Firefox will start with the already applied settings then you can try to browse the website you want. If you receive other errors, go to the main window of Tor and click on Use New Identity then browse again or disconnect and reconnect again using HotSpot Shield.

Try to use Tor Browser. It's a more user friendly application that comes bundled with its own browser and proxy configure. You can download it from the official website. Download the package (it's self extracting) and launch the application in the extracted folder. When everything is green, you will be able to connect using the built-in browser to any website you want.

Answer by Sean Hill

There are situations when even Hotspot Shield has problems bypassing security filters because they were blocked by the system administrator. Try to use something else with increased security and anonymity in order to connect to the secure server. For instance, Tor Browser Bundle is a good alternative that you can use.

Can I prevent users from entering the blocked sites using Hotspot Shield with the help of Kaspersky Admin Kit 10.0 ??
They are actually using software like Hotspot Shield to bypass the proxy.

Answer by Pete Clapp

You can manually disable the Hotspot application by using system policy. Please go to Start > Run and type "gpedit.msc". Expand the tree to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > System and double click Don’t run specified Windows applications. Enable the setting, add Hotspot to the list and they can't run the application anymore. Also, you need to have individual users with limited access.

Answer by Julia Bocchetta

You need to click on the system tray icon, then use Connect and wait for the process to finish. If you encounter errors during the connection, try to re-install it by obtaining a new package from the developer's website.
