anubclaw's review of Safer Surf, www.safersurf.com

“If you surf from time to time and you do not have too...”

★★☆☆☆

written by anubclaw on 04/12/2006

Good Points
Good Online Protection (Antivirus for Emails and the Web)
Good privacy protection (Anonymizing Service)
Unlimited traffic for peer to peer networking
Good Speed (even with DSL)
Antispam agent (forward Spam mails to the mailserver and they will be registered)
Anonymous mail service
Idea is fantastic :)
Cancellation of Service easy without complications during trial.

Bad Points
NO protection against viruses and trojans that you bring in via DVD/CD/disk/USB Stick
2000MB Webtraffic limit
12 month billing ahead that means if you want to have it they will book up to 12 months in advance (99 Euro/year)
Problems with DRM (because of the anonymizing feature some DRM Sites do not work with it correctly
AntiSpam feature lags some but that's bearable

General Comments
If you surf from time to time and you do not have too much mail or web traffic then this service is something to think about.

Powerusers with lots of normal downloads (because DL from normal websites will be counted in the web traffic limit) I can not recommend the service.

If the proxy settings would be configurable to exclude some websites from running over the proxy it would be great.

However all stands and falls with the 2000 MB limit they impose (its in the AGBs ).

An extra 1000 MB costs 3 Euro after they have locked you for excessive traffic).
