Many people use it, including me.
The caveat is that the program is only as good as the information you feed it.

PeerGuardian will block Ip addresses.
You have to tell it which ones to block.
The website has lists of addresses you can import into the program.

Does it work?
I'm not sure, but better safe than sorry in these perilous times, I think.

No need to worry about peer gaurdian. Just download the newest version of k-lite because it automatically blocks ip address blocks from known RIAA and other anti-filesharing groups by having peer gaurdian banned address integrated into k-lite.
