Do I understand correctly, this is a way to pay to see the game as someone in a foreign country?

That is my understanding. I wonder how the FCC would feel about this?

If you are paying for it, what would be illegal about it? There's nothing illegal about proxy servers. If they were, big companies like AOL wouldn't use them.

Not sure either, but I assume if they wanted those in the USA to see the games in this manner, then there wouldn't be a need for this workaround. There are some strange rules when it comes to football, tv, and the internet.

Yeah, I gather that, but there's nothing illegal about proxy servers, so they must know it can be done. They just assume most won't know how to do it.

No. They actually read very well and probably make sense to most people here. I'm just that technically/computer challanged.

Following instructions has nothing to do with being technically/computer-ly challenged:D

Just read.

Here is a different way to apply these settings.

(1) Open NOTEPAD [ START >> Run >> notepad ]

(2) Copy and paste the following code into notepad

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]
"ProxyServer"="XX.XX.XX.XX:XXXX"
"ProxyEnable"=dword:00000001
"ProxyOverride"="127.0.0.1"

Replace XX.XX.XX.XX with the IP address of the European SSL Proxy Server and XXXX with the port number.

(3) Save this file [ FILE >> Save As ]

IMPORTANT: Save the file to the desktop or somewhere you can get to it. In the "Save As" dialogue box, change the file type to "All Files" and save the file as "NFLPASS.reg". The ".reg" extension is very important.

(4) Close Notepad

(5) In Explorer, browse to the folder that you saved the file.

(6) Double-click NFLPASS.reg and hit yes to all prompts.

(7) Restart INTERNET EXPLORER and see if NFLPASS works.

Proxy addresses are not illegal. The only thing illegal would be signing in with someone else's Yahoo! username and password that has purchased the Game Pass with their credit card, which is what I would have to do since I am broke. It can be done though, but that is as far as I will go about that.

Now if you guys wanted to chip in together and buy a channel just for the users on this site, that might work, if you could find a way for multiple users to be logged in at the same time.

Legally, yes you have to pay. Illegally, nope, but you have to find the username and password of someone that has purchased the service.

This is more of a loophole than something illegal.

Technically you ARE viewing this data (football game) from another country. The data has to route to that Proxy server in another country which then routes to you. If anyone is at fault it is the other country illegally broadcasting the game to you LOL

You can be caught if they suspect you are doing this but it I highly doubt this is the kind of thing they are sweating over at the FCC and FBI.

25 dollars sounds kind of steep to see a game.

So this thing isn't free? So what is the point?
Probably for those that don't have the NFL network and can't get NFL Sunday Ticket.

Thanks for the update. $25 is a steep price to pay for a game and especially this game. Later in the year though when the boys are playing someone better then I'm sure I will feel different.
