Great news for those of us on the last few days of the month without international cap. Some guy, name still unknow, has come to the rescue to our problem by offering a local web proxy service called ZA-Portal.

ZA-Portal is not only a web proxy but they offer other services such as rappid leech, a type of rapidshare service, aswell as mirrors to some sites and even script based games all on local bandwidth.

The question on everybodies lips now is will this service be offered for longer than a month or two without shutting down like previous attempts like this. Users ons the MyBroadband forum reports that speed on the proxy service is exceptionaly good and I can speak for it aswell after testing it out. The owner of ZA-Portal also announced a 2nd and 3rd proxy in the pipeline as demand is very big at the moment.

All and all I would say this is great news for us local users and only time will tell if the service will be either suspended or change into a paid for service, although the owner of ZA-Portal said that would never be the case.

Good luck ZA-Portal, we hope you stick around for long.
