Watch great american tv shows for free!

I got a very good news for all us Europeans: ABC started their streaming service on their website today. Users from the USA are able to watch episodes of Lost, Desperate Houswives, Alias and others right from the website. Unfortunatly they check your IPs origin and decline access if the whois turns out to be from outside the USA. But as always, there is a way around this restriction.

These more experienced of you probably already know it’s nothing hard: the trick is called HTTP proxy. This thing will mask your real IP address and cheat ABC’s website so it will think you are american citizen. There are many public proxy lists on the internet, so it shouldn’t be a problem for you to find one. I can also recommend you great application called “ProxySwitcher” which can download list of many proxies sorted by various countries and ping to this proxy, and easily connect through this. Next episode of LOST is waiting :)
