It's a free add-on from Firefox called Stealthy, this is where you get it and it works great, but it will only work on a Mac

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stealthy/

it's only an add-on and not software, the add-on sits in the Navigation Toolbar, click the small down arrow and change to any country that you want, I want to watch BBC so I put in GB and press OK then I enable the red Stealth until it goes green, that's it, I then go to Google and then into iplayer, it's a bit slow to Navigate around Iplayer but once you are in then there is no buffering and everything worked great, I don't think there is an Add-on for Windows 7 XP etc,

I am clearly not doing something obvious! In finder but not in applications!

It doesn't download any software when you go into the webpage it asks you to add to firefox, just click the green button that says (Add to Firefox) and it will ask if you want you to install the add-on, click install and Stealthy will be put on the right side of your Navigation toolbar in Firefox. as I said it's very slow to start with, but once you are in the program you want ( say a move to the country ) it works well with no buffering, another good site is VIPBox at http://www.vipbox.tv/ (works with Mac and Windows),

this site is for all your sports needs, and works great, watched the Spurs match, and Barcelona this morning, don't download the player that is advertized it will disappear after 30 sec, google chrome also has this stealthy add-on for Mac,

Robert hi!



Still trying to get this to work! Is there maybe something in my settings that is preventing me from getting this? When I go to the link it tells me to download which I did. No green button asking me to add to Firefox!



Thanks for your help

at the top of Firefox click tools then click add-ons this will take you to add-ons Manager, go down to extensions, click and it will tell you what extensions you have in firefox, Stealthy should be there. also you must have the Navigation Toolbar ticked in Firefox, or you will not see it, you right click the top of Firefox and you can add the Navigation Bar, the Bookmarks Toolbar, the Add-on Bar, Tabs on Top, and Customize, hope this helps,
