I checked the Hamachi website and it appears they still offer free accounts as well as a pay-for Premium. They have a comparison chart between the two types. I was wondering about security, but Steve Gibson of Gibson Research (grc.com) seemed very impressed with the functionality of the service and security.

I am not installing Hamachi again.

For falcon4-allied forces, our squad saw that hamachi caused jitter compared to direct connects. Its LAN like feature allowed the host to serve and play as a client with one WAN IP.

Spectre,
I fly LockOn and IL2 (4.05m) and sub in SH3. No problems after I ran the StarFarce remover.
Every time I do an update, Starforce tries to raise its ugly head again, but I remove it again.
In regards to Hamachi, the packeting is different than standard TCP and UDP that the games are expecting to use. Hamachi is like a VPN tunnel that may be the source of the induced jitter we saw with FalconAF. Havent tried it with other sims to know first hand how compatible they are to it.

Youre correct on all counts, and I do have Flaming Cliffs. Havent gone to Black Shark. Theres a huge IL2 download that has 405m w/o boonty.
No problem getting around it and have had no issues since they were dealt with.
