"BitTorrent users are using VPN services to hide their sharing activity.
This works well, until the VPN connection breaks exposing one's personal
IP-address. Luckily there are ways to prevent this from happening,
including the free and open source VPNWatcher......."

“The main reason to code VPNWatcher was that the other programs I found
are closed source, and I’m just an open source guy, especially when it
has anything to do with privacy and security,†Freddi says.

The

guy is smart to rely on open-source. I'm finding nothing but
benefits from using free software in Windows. I'm not ready to
