About Expat_Shield Toolbar?
"The Expat Shield software is a virtual private network (VPN) program designed to provide users with access to UK TV websites including BBC iPlayer and ITV from anywhere outside of the UK. By routing the user's IP address through a UK IP address, Expat Shield allows individuals to bypass geographic restrictions and access UK-based content as if they were still in the UK. This effectively circumvents the blocks put in place by the BBC and other UK TV websites to prevent access from non-UK IP addresses."
