can some one please help ... i have peer blocker and i am been mass attacked by companies I.E savvis , quantcast, perrilian pty ECT there are hundreds if not thousands, i am not downloading or uploading at any time and they still try to invade can any one tell me whats going on Thanks
i got a ? does it automaticly blocc sites ip addresses or do i have to manually enter a site like for instance mega upload will it auto blocc or do i have to put mega uploa on my blocc list
hey epic if you dont knoow just dont tell unless your 75% sure ok!! my question is does it matter if i dont run peer guardian on staartup will it still keeep blocking although it doesnt run on startup does it have to be open to block??? like does the little emblem on the bottom right corner have to be there to block?? plz answer!..
msg to all people you do not need this ive been downloading for ages just read the comments of the file you want to download (if there is any) and that should tell you if it is been tracked or not and also it is not illegal if you download for yourself
About block lists. What happens if I block my ISP ex. Comcast or Road Runner from tracking me. I've only read these circular "don't bother asking questions" with the only answer being "it's not recommended". It's like on list sites I went to they had a FIRST RULE OF FIGHT CLUB attitude about the question.
I mean, If I block my ISP trackers, wouldn't that hide my use of P2P clients to them? Wouldn't that stop throttling? Or would there be MUCH MORE NEGATIVE consequences of doing this IDK yet?
The only thing i hate bout it is when ever I turn on my windows and try to open Peer it takes me like three times to click to get that sucker open. is their a reason for that?
@guinlyone. Just turn it off when you are NOT downloading something. It dosnt need to be running ALL the time. If you are seeding something then also have it running thats it. It may have blocked google for the same reasons it blocks sony. Just disable it when you arent downloading. Problem fixed.
NOBODY GET THIS! I downloaded it and somehow it was blocking Google. I spent 3 days without Google and it was awful. If you think I'm an idiot then please help me! I want to know why PG automatically blocked Google without me doing anything
EpicTut thanks man for this great software. I've been downloading so many damn long since Lime Wire first came out. You make it sound easier for me cause I'm software Illiterate. Only know hardware. After I done will it block my ip address?
These programs prevent people on the list from downloading from you (and you from downloading from those on the list) - they have nothing to do with blocking the RIAA from finding out who's sharing files.
@Mzege thx guys for all the thumbs up and comments, i forgot about this video lol. Just watched it again and boy i realise @AllenAmin that it must be him! lol
its like a firewall that blacklists the IP addresses of known investigative agencies. A hole in the strategy is that agencies can hire others to scan for them., and they might not be blacklisted.
So, you get a incoming connection to your limewire app from Copyright Lawsuites RUs, this program matches their IP to the list and refuses the connection. Simple as that.
How effective is it? Depends.I used to use it and got a couple of notices. Then stopped using it and haven't gotten any.
thanks for this post but i have a prob. im running vista and when i install PG2 i cant open it and ive tried just about everything i can think of.....so if you could help that would be awesome
If the program doesn't open for you, its your firewall its blocking the program since peerguardian acts as a quasi firewall itself. 1. go to task manager 2 click processes tab 3 find pge.exe and click end process, that will allow you to uninstall the program. After you uninstall go to program files find peerguardian and delete the folder. then shut down your firewall or use another one like Symantec. then reinstall PG
hey,i have a problem with my peer gaurdian when i click on the file to open its window nothing comes up and i tried uninstalling it but it says to close the application (cant close it because it does'nt come up)... how do i fix this?
do you really think that is gonna happen because millions of people download illegal stuff world wide and its not like there just gonna barg in ya house with guns is it???
Why? This program does nothing. If you download a torrent, they can still track your IP and then email your ISP to cut you off or prosecute you. Henceforth you are dumb, by not giving any specific evidence as to why you think I'm dumb.
Wow, you must be some sort of genius. Seriously, I'm sure that never crossed their minds. I'm sure the guys at PG are flabbergasted with such a mind blowing idea that someone might be trying to track your IP. Bravo sir. You have truly enlightened the world with your expert knowledge on how this program doesn't work!
If you really think using this program will somehow encourage the police to come knocking on your door, you're dumb as a door nail.
All this program is is a simplified firewall with a list of known ip addresses that are associated with anti-p2p, government as well as spyware organizations. It is not guaranteed protection as these organizations can and do get new ips but it is still better than nothing.
Then why download it? The Government have other ways of catching pirates, how is this any reassurance? It's completely pointless... Use a program like Tor or a proxy if your wanting to hide yourself.
Again, the government doesn't go chasing pirates, private organizations like the RIAA and third party companies they hire like MediaSentry do. It is their IPs that PG blocks, government ips are just optional. It's better than not using anything and proxies are slow. There are other ways of getting software without having to need proxies or firewalls.
mhmm.. right, well i guess we both have our opinions, i reckon this would just be dead weight though and if you use a browser like Tor as i said in my other post it won't be slow like web proxies.
Other ways of getting software there are, just stay away from most new release torrents like cams of new films or new release game torrents and you should be alright. Usenext/ftp ftw.. don't trust rapidshare they pass your IP on.
If this is correct then there should be no need for this program.
Torrents are the most dangerous although there's a 99.999% chance that your ISP doesn't care if you download from torrents. Megaupload and rapidshare are 99% safe as well although if your uploading lots of illegal material there then there's a chance the police might come a knocking (very low chance though, your ISP's right is to keep you anonymous)
so yeah, download what ever you like. Just stay away from downloading newly released movies til a week
Ok so i got peerguardian (beta for vista) and when i go through the set up and finish setup it doesnt open an interface later to see what its blocking or change setting?..please help or recoment another program to protect me from the internet world!!
if you have vista make a vid on how to use it on vista....... you need to disable windows defender. disable uac and start task manager before you start peer guardian. also disable peer guardian before you close it, it will start disabled and simply enable it when you open it. one more thing you cant have utorrent open when you use it dont know about azureus
Yeah I see the gray text, but they are all IPs. Also, on the list manager all of my lists aren't up to date, and had failed connections thus being disabled. What should I do?
PeerGuardian does not keep out the people if they see suspicious behavior of numerous downloads from your machine than they will send a letter from your ISP i got a warning letter from optimum and i have been using peerguardian, but i downloaded from mininova, i should just stick to isohunt what are other torrent sites that are decent?
epic tutorials are excellent and greatly appreciated. Im hoping you open a website we can all access for general advise someday. STUMBLEUPON would be a simple way to do so.
I just got a warning from my cable provider. Should I wait some time before i start downloading again or should start right away? I've installed peer guardian, but I dont have as many links showing when I open my list manager. Do I need them all?
good job i hate vista to vista sucks massive balls everything i have its says sorry but the this version u have is not compatible with vista the hell with microsoft
good job. We need to increase awareness of the fact that organizations like MPAA and RIAA and media defender are infact using malicious and illegal ways to attack people who do not buy their content. I do not live in the U.S.A but your laws are insane. I do not understand how an ip adress could be used in court to say you break copywright. Al that information could be forged easily. And any method of obtaining info via hacking into your pc must allso be illegal. If not could i hack mpaa? or riaa
