I can tell you that Hotspot Shield is a VPN, a medicine much much more serious than a proxy. (In my observation) a proxy only affects your browser, but a VPN affects your whole computer, including all downloading, torrents and p2p like emule.

Hotspot is adware, and will affect your computer, even when Hotspot is turned off. When I start Hotspot, the computer fan slows down and the hard disk makes a lot of noise, indicating high cpu usage. Unfortunately, I haven't found any other vpn that is free (does anybody know if there are other free VPN's)? However, where I am, Hotspot is the only way I can use torrents or emule, or listen/watch streaming content on censored or restricted ( by geographical location) websites (like Pandora.com)
