Ports shouldn’t need to be messed with unless you know what you’re doing. Any deviation is up to you and your flavor of customization. If you choose to subscribe to any lists during the installation, please be aware that some will demand a subscription down the road, possibly, like I-Blocklist did a few months ago in 2016.įrom there, settings should be up to you, however we do reccomend the below. You should get the proper installation for both your OS and its bit version (x32 VS 圆4), however for the average user all you really need is to download “PeerBlock-Setup_v1.2_r693.exe” ( ) and follow the installation’s instructions. So this means you must download the latest version from the Google Repository ( ). The forum only exists and is accessible, which means that we can’t give you any logical guess as to when it’ll be back up. In the end, it’s an ever increasing game of cat and mouse-the user either paying for subscriptions, and trusting the provider, or creating their own and working on ensuring the IPs being blocked are the ones that should be and not those needed.Īt the writing of this document, the main PB site is down due to an error. Blocking what one assumes to be an IP of an AD network can lead to blocking several sites, due to a false positive, and hindering access to important sites like those belonging to banks. Unlike a firewall, however, PB is more demanding of its users to be ever vigilant of what the IP is and where it resolves to and who owns it. You can block or allow IPs based upon “rule sets” in the form of subscriptions or files that list a series of IPs for PB to do with as you’ve stated.
For simplicity’s sake, Peerblock (abbreviated to PB from now for the remainder of this document) is nothing more than an IP blocker.
Peerblock ( ) is referred to as, depending who you ask, a free and open-source personal firewall or as a “pseudo-firewall” meant to be the successor of Peerguardian ( ). Please visit our blog for more PDFs and information:
