Hello,

I have already contacted AnchorFree about this, but their support sucks :(

When I connect Hotspot Shield, I always get a BSOD (DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION or KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE). I sometimes get it right after the connecting process is finished, and sometimes a minute later. Why is this?

Please help me :)

EDIT: Problem solved by updating. The previous version was advertised as Win 8 compatible, but only the newest one actually works. Shame on you, AnchorFree :mad:
