Windows 7 - PPTP VPN set up

If that doesn't work try the manual install:

1. Open the Control Panel on your computer, choose "Network and Internet" and then "Network and Sharing Center".
   
   
2. Click on "Setup a new connection or network".
   
   
   
3. Select "Connect to a workplace" and then click on the "Next" button.
   
   
   
4. Click on "Use my Internet connection".
   
   
   
5. Now enter one of the VPN server addresses that we've provided you (in the welcome email) with in the "Internet address" field, then enter "GuardMyIP.com" in the "Destination name". Click on the "Next" button.
   Please note - when entering the "Internet address" choose a server address from the welcome email that represents the internet experience you require. Eg if you want a secure US IP address & internet experience; enter one of the US server addresses and choose an easy to identify "destination name" eg "GuardMyIP.com US". If you want mutiple options for connections you will need to repeat this manual installation for each server connection you require.
   
   
   
6. Enter your GuardMyIP.com account details - your User name and Password in the relevant fields. Tick the "Remember this password" box. Then connect to the VPN service by clicking on the "Connect" button.
   
   
   
7. You are now connected to a secure GuardMyIP server. You can disconnect and reconnect as often as you wish and set up multiple server connections for different IP server locations (see step 5.)
