    Does anyone know of any way of getting around the fact that some sites only allow people in the U.S. to watch its videos online? eg: http://creative.myspace.com/VOD/oc/index.html

    Besides moving to the US!

    maybe you could use one or other of the anonymous browing sites...(google anonymous browing sites) or one of the ip hiding sites....worth a try?

    worldwide proxies should you need to watch videos from elsewhere too ;)

    http://www.proxy4free.com

    you will need to change your browser settings and test a few as the speed can suck on some proxies.

    Open internet explorer

    tools > options > Connections > lan settings

    Tick the box that says use a proxy server for your LAN ..

    Enter the IP address and port number supplied in proxy4free

    Apply - ok ...

    your done :)

    just rememer to untick the box when you are done as the proxys expire every few days.
