I just want to be able to download B&N books with my Nook here in Canada. I'm not really sure what I need to do. I found Hot Spot Shield and installed it on my laptop, but when I try to turn it on, I get this message:

Oops! Firefox could not connect to 127.0.0.1:895

I've reloaded forever, but it's not working. Anybody know anything about this kind of stuff? should I install it on our desktop instead?
You should not have to use a VPN in Canada. Because some B&N books are available for Canada, Canadian IP-addresses are allowed.
Registering you B&N account with an US shipping and billing address should be enough to have access to all the books in the B&N store.
