The Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) is a method for implementing virtual private networks (VPN).

Apart from security, a PPTP VPN allows you to use a static ip address of your server for all your internet connection. A great way to get static ip if you are on an ISP that only provides dynamic ip to clients.As Windows XP, Windows VISTA, Windows 7, comes with a built-in PPTP Client, PPTP is the easiest way to use VPN without the requirement for any software installation.
