Peerguardian Ips!

[dingdongding]

the simplest way is to do domain searches for registered ranges- yesterday i had luck doing wildcard searches on arin (eg- baytsp* ) and was surprised to find a bunch that weren't on the recommended list- there are also sophisticated methods that take more time... the problem right now us ppl think they're detectives or something- they get port scanned by someone and then they get the range which could be huge- an isp or a school and then add it to the database which is plain stupid- ppl are forgetting it's an anti p2p database... automatic port scans happen all the time

Thanks everyone for your help. :-)

How do they get those IP addresses anyway? 

Yeah foreal, I wonder where they get them at.....

I didn't think that the search for songs was so extensive...

but thanx for the good info for stopping them (and maybe others). now it takes hardly any time to update the datebase!

Well this is a tiny bit off topic, but what do most people think a apporiate agression level for a 56ker is? Right now I have it set on 40 should I go higher or lower? I am scared if I put it onto 100 that my connection won't be able to handle it and downloads will never finsh.

a note from meth of the aggression scale:
meth
15-JUN-2003 14:27:50 aggression settings.. it's more of a backup in case the normal blocking manages to miss a connection. The aggression is cyclic check. At 10%, the TCP table is checked once every 100ms, at 100% the TCP table is checked every 10ms.

it's better to import the ips into your firewall than use pg...
