Well, it's not quite the same name...
The product you are refering to is called "Hotspot Shield", while this product is called Hotspots.
The names may be similar, but the Shield product clearly states what it does with your IP address etc.
Hope you figure it out, 'cause there are probably a lot of other Shield users with the same problem.
Remember, the term itself "Hotspot" is not isolated to these products. The term itself is kind of generic and can be associated to congregational settings/definitions of close to any form.
