Version: Hotspot Shield 0.942-2
"Marketing garbage disguised as an application"
Pros: The idea of this is valid, to provide protection when at a public hotspot.
Cons: But this is not even an application; no preferences, tool bar, help file, nada. just marketing spyware installed into your browser. Avoid this like the plague.
