What do you mean by "land line scan"?

Freegate doesn't stop anyone from eavesdropping on you if they have access to your computer. It doesn't prevent people from installing keyloggers or even looking at your history. Nothing on your computer is encrypted.

If your school doesn't have access to your computer, they will not be able to see which sites you visited. The connection between you and the proxy is encrypted. They might be able to tell that you are using Freegate, though, if they look hard enough.
