Please recheck these options and try again.

Error resolving connect to address: gethostbyname() failed: Windows error 11004: The requested name is valid, but no data of the requested type was found.” This means you are either not connected to the Internet while the software is trying to log in or you have a firewall on your computer that may be blocking the Total Net Shield from accessing the Internet or acting as a server. Please make sure you are connected and you are not blocking it with a firewall and try to login again.

Logging Out
To Logout, click on the Logout button to the right. Please note: Logging out will turn OFF the secure tunneling but your settings will still be configured to connect to the service.

Doing this will route your Internet traffic through the software but it will not be protected or anonymous while in this mode.

Running In Secure Mode
When you initially connect you are going to be “Running in Secure Mode.” Whatever programs you have configured to go through the software and to our servers are going to be secured and you will be protected.

While “Running in Insecure Mode” your icon down by your clock will show as a red icon instead of green. Your main Total Net Shield screen will also indicate you are “Running in Insecure Mode” and in the Active Listening Ports you will see this option has changed to use the Built in HTTP Proxy setting. Please note: Doing this will route your Internet traffic through the software but it will not be protected by our SSH servers, in other words, your surfing is not secure or anonymous while in this mode.
The Error “Listening Manager”
The error “Listening Manager: Listening on 127.0.0.1:xx failed. Only one usage of each socket address is normally permitted.” is commonly caused by having more than one Total Net Shield service running. You would see multiple icons below by your clock in your system tray.
