    Browsers don't work with the VPN


    Hi there,

    It seems I have some issues with my VPN connection at home. I have the Lenovo G560 with Windows 7 64 bit installed. As soon as I switch on a VPN connection (Hola VPN) all my browsers (Mozilla, Opera, Yandex) excepting Chrome can't connect to the Internet. Without the VPN, everything works fine. The problem isn't related to antivirus or firewall since I tried to work without them. Is this a problem with the VPN service, or something else? Whether VPNs reviewed here (The Best VPN services for 2018 - CNET) or here (Best VPN service providers in : ratings, reviews, tips for users.) can help resolve the issue? Maybe, I need to take advantage of paid options?

    Thanks in advance!

    Its the worse most risky vpn going as it uses P2P so you will have people routing via your pc and it does some dodgy practices. If your isp blocks P2P that would stop it working Hola VPN Review: 8 Reasons Why You Should Never Use Hola!
