pg2 uses the lists from blocklist.orgWhat site(URL) does PeerGuardian2 use to update its blocklist?
I had the safepeer 2.5.1 plug-in for azureus that uses one of the sites that blocklist manager uses (bluetack).
Hey Xanthus, a warning would have been nice. From now on when you recieve request of that nature how about letting us know

I remember using my university's connection a couple of months ago to try and download a file using Bittorrent, and nothing was happening because I'm pretty sure I was being blocked thanks to Safepeer and Peerguardian. I brought my laptop home and it worked like a charm again lolthose universitys can be nosey bastards

Usenet is one of the safest popular ways to get releases, but you generally have to pay a monthly fee of $15 or so to get access to it.
If you get a copyright infringement email, the best thing you can do is NOT RESPOND TO IT. Silence is NOT an admission of guilt. If you reply back to them, that means that you actually READ the email, and if it turns out that you go to court they can use the emails against you. And its not like your reply will make them think otherwise. Saying it wasn't you won't get you off the hook at all.
Its not a huge benefit... They'll probably nail you anyway even if you're quiet. But there's ABSOLUTELY no positives about replying to the email, and a possible negative, so there's no point in doing it.
I've had 2 of these notices in about 4 years - both for movies. My response each time was that I was taking immediate action to remove the material.
Since it's "big" movies, songs, and well know software that they target, I get them mainly from private trackers or private usenet servers (newshosting.com).
I also use PeerGuardian.
i dont understand why u guys still use peerguarding, blocking bad ppl ain't gonna save ur ass from getting sue fried by big brothers
better stick to usenet, haven't heard a single legal issue with it, RIAA&MPAA can't even touch it
