thanks! is this something like a proxy server? and if so does this decrease the speed of your connection? i heard that most proxy servers makes your speed very very slow.

yea it creates a virtual proxy server or as they call it -> it creates a virtual private network (VPN) between your PC and their Internet gateway, so you'll be able to access the internet through an intermediate server (managed by HS’s owner), thus enabling them to evade content-filtering mechanisms (thus avoiding censorship) .
well yes it will decrease your speed a little but comparing to other programs this one is the best so far and the fastest ( also ultra vpn is pretty good ) I think buffering a 10 minutes video will take you less than 2 minutes and that pretty good (at least for me) .
but the Idea is that you don't have to use it all the time when there is a video that can't be shown to your country just turn it on and buffer it and then turn it off .
it will appear in your system tray as a little shield with a moon sliver on it, or you can launch it from Start -> All Programs (in windows OS) when it is red so its off ...when... yellow, HS is trying to connect; when it’s green, you’re connected and ready to go, right-click on its icon and select Disconnect (the system tray icon turns red); to restart it, select Connect.
One thing I love about your stuff is that it is always finished MUSIC and not just stumbling through tabs of the great and the good and godly.
BTW..I think I spotted you on the very left hand side of your band sitting quietly and just playing... that's why I couldn't imagine you just getting up and wapping someone with the guitar!
(Then as a Doctor, you would be obliged to treat him afterwards etc....and the whole thing just gets too complicated in my thoughts... )

Indeed you did, Ron. The band vocalist, who is the person that got all the members together, always refers to me as the unsung hero. I usually do most of the work getting the band members to rehearsals, teaching them the chords, etc., yet I always get downplayed on stage for the final outcome (whereby my guitar doesn't get heard very well, and I rarely get caught on video). This year, my guitar's volume was at a good level, though. And there is ONE video where you can see a good close-up of me.
I appreciate your kind words, Ron.
PS: Yeah, it just wouldn't work having me smack an audience member with my guitar.

LOL!
Ramzi,
At first my impressions of the band was kind of like a Beirut Santana, 'cos the percussion was great, but the lead guitarist just wasn't there, though the backing sound was.
Singer was great.
My second thoughts was that there were too many string instruments and needed some relief here and there and made me think of Radio Tarifa.
You gotta admit, those wind/reed instruments definitely add the ultimate vibe! (Give's me the chills just listening!...bloody fantastic!..but maybe that's because I'm non Middle-Eastern and not used to hearing it? )
There were only a couple on YouTube.
This one has the great Flamenco guitarist Amir Haddad on 'Lectrik Oud.
(would give you a chance to come centre-stage with guitar)
(BTW:This one's for Deniz...to chill him out a bit )
When they were in Aberdeen, they blew the house away, with really loud amplification on some of those, practically Biblical instruments!

They're pretty cool. They don't give me any chills, personally, though. Might be a cultural thing...
The guitarist is actually a really good musician (I assume you were referring to the electric guitarist on the left of the screen). I guess this isn't his thing much though. Check him out in the Aicha video - that's probably one video that shows his better side.
