Do you ever give a look at the peers you blocked ?
I use Vuze, with ipfilter.dat
and one cool thing is that in a click you can get access to the whole list of blocked and banned IPs.
Accidentally i clicked it today and i noticed several antip2p groups listed there as blocked IPs that weren't allowed to connect to me.
Pretty spooky, when you come to think how things are getting tighter and tighter nowadays.
by the way, i was downloading from private trackers, none of them even considered remotely hard to join in. but that means shit, i also caught few of them in some trackers you wouldn't imagine... :whistling
PS: Vuze rox.
Re: Do you ever give a look at the peers you blocked ?
can you check this in utorrent? I know it block peers/ips from time to time, but I'm uncertain whether it is permanent or just for the session.
Re: Do you ever give a look at the peers you blocked ?
did you bother to lookup the IP addresses? ipfilters are usually wildly inaccurate.

in Vuze, you can manually ban any peer permanently from your queue whenever you want. it compiles its own list.

i did. my curiosity kills me.
turned out they really belonged to the institutions they pointed to, as given in the description at www.ip-adress.com (no, it's not misspelled)
Re: Do you ever give a look at the peers you blocked ?
Did you report those ip's to tracker's staff?

Haha, good one! :P
Re: Do you ever give a look at the peers you blocked ?
how to apply ipfilter.dat in Vuze? and where can i get the latest ipfilter.dat?
Re: Do you ever give a look at the peers you blocked ?
Interesting. This would be more insightful if you specified which trackers and at least what type of torrents (new xvids, etc.).

why should i ? :huh:
It's their option not to use a ip filter on the server access, therefore it's because they allow them. they are well aware of this, and everyone knows how easy it is to generate a 403 html error on IP lists you don't want to allow, ffs.
@realityhd: they ranged everything you can think of. i mostly download xvid and pc games. i won't name the trackers of course. After all, i'm only a member at demonoid. :rolleyes:
