As far as I can tell, blocklist is running but blocking nothing. At the bottom of the main window is a little padlock icon that says 'Blocked IP ranges' when I hover over it, but worryingly has the number 0 next to it. I can find no further options to tell it to start blocking the IPs. It appeared to be downloading the list, reached 100%, and then nothing happened. I told it to use the first Peerguardian list, checked 'Import blocklist on startup' and clicked 'Force Download and Import'. I therefore downloaded the latest build (1.1.9) and installed it, and then went into options and turned on 'Blocklist' in the plugins. PeerGurdian blocks connections for the configured IP ranges and logs the blocked connections. PeerGuardian is a tiny IP blocker program especially designed for P2P software users, but also to anyone who is concerned about the investigations that corporations and authorities perform on the internet. pgl is based on the Linux kernel netfilter framework and iptables. Its origins lie in targeting aggressive IPs while you use P2P. ![]() It blocks connections to and from hosts specified in huge blocklists (thousands or millions of IP ranges). ![]() ![]() I used to use uTorrent with Peerguardian, but as peerguardian doesn't run on Windows 7 (have tried disabling forced driver signature checking etc.) I started looking for an alternative, and read on a forum somewhere that Deluge supports IP blocking. PeerGuardian for Vista/Windows 7 v2.0 RC 1. Description: PeerGuardian is a privacy oriented firewall application. Not sure if this is in the right section.
