Flash Player exposure of Real IP

[pdrmendes 0]

Hi,

 

Sorry if this is a stupid question but I wasnt able to find it on the forum.

 

I've read that Flash Player can expose your real IP to the website you're visiting even when using a VPN.

 

Can someone please confirm if this is the case with Air VPN as I will need to use some websites that use flash.

 

Thanks

I have not experienced the problem myself, however you can ensure that nothing like it occurs by enabling the "Network Lock" feature. Network Lock denies all connections out of the VPN tunnel.

Test it for yourself - it all depends upon your system configuration:

Also, for other privacy intruding features including in modern browsers:
