3 Secure VPN's

Comuterworld say's "It's a truth universally acknowledged that public Wi-Fi hotspots aren't secure, but they're so convenient that most of us use them anyway. That's why there was something of a panic last year when Eric Butler showed everyone how easy it is to hijack Facebook, Twitter and PayPal accounts on open Wi-Fi networks via his FireSheep, a Firefox add-on."

I say "Finding out that the most common VPN (Virtual Private Network) is no longer safe from its add-on to its source is kind of  troubling even to find these are the more popular places that you would assume would break for the real deal and not what works for them and their pockets. As everyone goes about their day to day at their local coffee shop or other hot spot location with the feeling of being secure, little do we know we’re still at risk.  Three VPN’s have been found that remain secure are; HotSpotVPN, StrongVPN and WiTopia.  Hopefully these companies fix the problem soon and spend an extra buck to keep their customers secure and satisfied.  Hopefully."
