我们介绍的最后一个 VPN 是Hotspot Shield VPN,它很好,但仍有一些缺点。本文介绍了另一个名为Globus Free VPN Browser的 VPN 的评论。它实际上是一个VPN 代理(VPN agent)和一个内置防火墙的TOR 浏览器的包。(TOR browser)
Globus 免费 VPN Tor 浏览器
当您安装Globus Free VPN Browser软件包时,它会同时安装VPN代理和浏览器,并将浏览器固定到您的Windows任务栏。
您无需处理任何隐藏的垃圾软件,因此在安装方面,这比更改您的主页并安装工具栏的Hotspot Shield VPN更好。(Hotspot Shield VPN)
我会将两者与 SpotFlux进行比较,并认为Globus的安装要好得多,因为它不需要时间。按安装所需时间排序,Globus是最耗时的,Hotspot Shield是最耗时的VPN 软件(VPN software)安装。
无论(Irrespective)使用哪种浏览器,Globus的(Globus)VPN代理都会从计算机开始并停留在您的系统托盘(System Tray)中,直到您退出或关闭计算机。它为您提供英国的默认 IP,当您右键单击Globus Free VPN代理的托盘(Tray)图标时,您可以从可用列表中选择一个区域列表。网络(Network)和共享中心(Sharing Center)显示了一个新的“公共”网络,因此您可以确保创建了一个新网络,该网络提供从您的计算机到 Globus Free VPN 的服务器的数据传输(Globus Free VPN)。
但是,似乎只有英国服务器可用于代理,因为我无法将其连接到法国(France)和美国的服务器。在这种情况下,它不会告诉您它没有连接,如果您不检查您的 IP,您可能会误以为您仍然受到保护。我还发现它有时会断开连接。
In other words, there is no system to tell you if the connection drops or if you are not connected to the proxy servers available in the list of Globus VPN agent. The ON/OFF switch is always ticked.
使用Spotflux和Hotspot Shield VPN,您可以看到系统托盘(System Tray)图标的颜色在连接或断开连接时发生变化。在这种情况下没有这样的功能。因此,您必须使用 whatismyipaddress.com 等网站之一继续检查代理。但是当它连接时,站点无法检测到它是代理,所以这是一个好点。我担心的是,当您连接到交互式网站并且连接断开时,它可能不仅会将您的信息泄露给网站,还会泄露给ISP(ISPs)。
Globus声称在浏览器内部有一个内置的防火墙。可能这就是我第一次使用它时无法连接到任何网站的原因。我进行了重新安装,然后我能够连接到我想要的任何网站。
该浏览器基于Chrome,您会发现与Chrome类似的选项。只是它现在在VPN上运行并且它具有防火墙,这使得它与正常浏览相比更具保护性。
没有广告,因此Globus在这里比Spotflux和Hotspot Shield VPN具有优势,因为这两个都显示广告以支持免费分发和使用他们的软件。速度(Speed)也很好,与Hotspot Shield VPN相比非常好。您可以使用任何浏览器,因为已经有一个VPN代理正在运行,但是带有Globus浏览器(也包含免费防火墙)的 Globus VPN 代理更具保护性。(Globus VPN)
Globus 免费 VPN 浏览器 – 判决(Globus Free VPN Browser – Verdict)
该软件包非常适合寻找优质免费VPN的人。这绝对比Hotspot Shield更好,因为后者的广告非常具有侵入性,可能会让某些人感到沮丧。唯一的问题是无法显示网络是否安全(无论它是否连接到代理服务器)——使用一些颜色系统或类似的东西。如果Globus可以将该功能添加到软件包中,我会说它是您计算机上的必备程序。可能这是一个需要修复的错误,我希望它会在未来的版本中修复。
Globus Free VPN Browser review: Encrypt all traffic, Browse anonymously
The last VPN we covered was Hotspot Shield VPN that is good but still had some shоrtcomings. This article presents the review of yet another VРN named Globus Free VPN Browser. It is actually, a package of a VPN agent and a TOR browser with a built-in firewall.
Globus Free VPN Tor Browser
When you install the Globus Free VPN Browser package, it installs both a VPN agent and a browser and pins the browser to your Windows taskbar.
There is no hidden crapware that you have to deal with so in a way, installation-wise, this is better than the Hotspot Shield VPN that changes your homepage and installs a toolbar.
I will compare the two with SpotFlux and maintain that the installation of Globus is much better as it does not take time. In order of time required for installation, Globus is the least time-consuming, and Hotspot Shield is the most time-consuming VPN software to install.
Irrespective of the browser, the VPN agent from Globus starts with the computer and stays in your System Tray until you Exit or shut down the computer. It provides you with the default IP of the UK, and there is a list of regions you can select from the list available when you right-click the Tray icon of Globus Free VPN agent. The Network and Sharing Center shows a new “public” network so you can be sure that there is a new network created that provides for data transmission from and to your computer to and from the servers of Globus Free VPN.
However, it seems that only UK servers were available for the proxy as I could not get it to connect to ones in France and the US. In that case, it does not tell you that it is not connected and if you do not check your IP, you might be under the wrong impression that you are still protected. I also found it dropping connections at times.
In other words, there is no system to tell you if the connection drops or if you are not connected to the proxy servers available in the list of Globus VPN agent. The ON/OFF switch is always ticked.
With Spotflux and Hotspot Shield VPN, you can see the color of the System Tray icon change when connected or disconnected. There is no such feature in this case. So you have to keep checking for the proxy using one of the websites such as whatismyipaddress.com. But when it is connected, the sites cannot detect that it is a proxy, so that is a good point. My fears are only that when you are connected to an interactive website, and the connection drops, it may give away your information to not only the websites but also to the ISPs.
Globus claims to have a built-in firewall inside the browser. Probably that was the reason I could not connect to any site when I used it for the first time. I did a reinstall, and then I was able to connect to any website I wanted.
The browser is based on Chrome, and you will find options similar to Chrome. Only that it is now running on the VPN and that it has a firewall makes it more protective compared to normal browsing.
There are no ads, so Globus has an edge here, over both Spotflux and Hotspot Shield VPN as both of these show ads to support free distribution and usage of their software. Speed too is good and is very good when compared to Hotspot Shield VPN. You can use any browser as there is already a VPN agent running but a Globus VPN agent with Globus browser (that contains a free firewall as well) is more protective.
Globus Free VPN Browser – Verdict
The package is good for people looking for a good, free VPN. This is definitely better than Hotspot Shield as the ads of the latter are pretty intrusive and may be frustrating for some. The only concern is not being able to display whether the network is secure or not (whether it is connected to proxy servers or not) – using some color system or something similar. If Globus can add that feature to the package, I will say it is a must-have program on your computer. Probably this is a bug that needs to be fixed, and I hope it will be, in future releases.
