When you sign in via the application (not the website) and click to recharge it opens up a page that isn't blocked. I've been doing this for the past 2 years now. Qualitynet maybe blocking skype but they're ignorant enough to miss out stuff :) Mark

Use AnchoreFree Hotspot Shield. It is a secure VPN that protect you when you access the internet from a public WiFi. It can also be used to bypass Kuwait censorship ;) It is free.

I've used them for years all around the world but had some very bad slowness once and got this advice from their customer service dept. The link is www.wiki.witopia.net/FAQ (#6) I like them..their price for openVPN service is incredible and like the other poster mentioned..Pandora over VPN through my iPhone is a sweet sweet extra. word to the wise. if you have slowness issues with witopia it may help to use their DNS servers and not your isp’s.

Witopia has been stable with me but I've only been using it for a day now but even if Witopia is not stable, Witopia is just one supplier of VPN, there are a million more. Its not about VPN being stronger than proxies, its about the limitations of proxies. Latency is a problem with proxies and VPN but keep in mind the extra time that involves you going to the proxy website and typing your url there. Yes typing because you can't use all your saved bookmarks. With VPN once its on you don't have to do anything else, it just works.
