Re: Does Peer Guardian really work?
about 5 years ago my isp shut off my internet for sharing freddy vs jason on edonkey or kazaa, not sure which, shortly after that i made the switch to downloading 99% stuff from torrents, but i also started using pg or protowall from there on out and haven't had my internet shut off.
As for using ipfilter or pg, the lists come from essentially the same place and you can set either list to bock educational ips or not.
As for it hurting small trackers, i know my ip right now is on the list as a few trackers run ipfilters to even get on the website and i can't access them. I could fill out a form and tried to get it unblocked by bluetack, just haven't felt like it yet.

if they catch someone for downloading copyright material,then they will go after your ISP not for u(we are small fish)and then your ISP will tell u what have u done and then u must quite with downloading..
i dunno abouth UK but there was few cases in world before when they have catch some people but nothing to worry abouth tho:)
Re: Does Peer Guardian really work?
So your ISP tells you to quit downloading
okay
What if you switch providers? Can you start downloading again until you get a warning from them too?
