Thread: Peergurdian Does It Block To Many Ip's?

  1. #1
    I've heard this blocks over 2,000,000 ips, but i think thats way to many, some of the ranges block huge ranges of ips that have real files.



    Am i wrong please tell me?

    I do. I dont have issues with it. In fact, the first night i used it, i had attempts from media force, and this other company, trying to get on.

    My speeds are still top notch, so it doesnt seem to block to many, "innocent" ips.

    Just up to you i guess. The stuff I share, that, and my firewall help with a little more privacy.

    It could block that many IPs but you would have to enter them in yourself. The program comes with like 200 in there that it blocks.

    There is an ERROR on the ip range for one of the RIAA addresses -- if you remove that error, the amount of ips blocked drops to about 510,000.

    Switeck or anyone, could you state or direct to that error in the ip range for one of the RIAA addresses. Then I could correct it in my copy of PG. TY

    The RIAA ones in the 208.*.*.* range -- 1 overlaps the other... that's the bad one.

    RIAA:208.192.0.0 - 208.255.255.255

    SHOULD READ

    RIAA:208.192.0.0 - 208.192.255.255

    That's still a HUGE range (65,536 ip addresses), but it's not the previous >4 million ips.

    I'm sure it blocks some innocent ips though I rather be safe and block 2 more million ips

    My Peerguardian is currently blocking over 36 million IP's....yeah, sure, some of them might be "inocent", but I'd rather stay on the safe side, and possibly lose a cuple of sources for a downlaod here and there , especially since I didn't notice any speed drops since I updated my block list
