The Free Peer-Peer Security Software PeerGuardian is an open source IP address blocker and a Free P2P Virus Protection software, that can prevent access to thousands of sites. It uses multiple, categorized lists and you can choose which type of sites you want to block, including spyware and malware related, advertising related and P2P file sharing related sites.

The blacklists are maintained and updated by a dedicated community, and you can automatically have the program download the latests lists from the internet. 

To make sure that the block-list used to block malicious connections is up to date; PeerGuardian uses an on- line block-list Database that is continuously updated on a daily basis — so your privacy will remain safe while swapping files. You can choose to update your list at each launch, every couple of days or once a week.

The Free Peer-Peer Security Software PeerGuardian also lets you create your own list based on your personal blocking preferences. PeerGuardian keeps track of all blocked sites, and you can easily overwrite blocking rules or add new site directly from the log viewer.

While this Free Peer-Peer Security Software is a great tool to block others from tracking your IP address, it is not a foolproof tool, due to the fact that a new IP that is not on the list is not blocked by Peer Guardian and thus can be tracking you. However, for most users, Peer Guardian does substantially reduce the risk of being tracked.

 The Free P2P Virus Protection Security Software PeerGuardian works by blocking and logging all TCP/IP connections to and from known IP ranges used by known P2P foes, such as the RIAA, MPAA, MediaForce, MediaDefender, BaySTP, Ranger, OverPeer and NetPD. The software is compatible with all TCP/IP based file sharing applications, such as Kazaa, iMesh, LimeWire, eMule, Grokster, DC++, Shareaza, and more.

A thing to mention about the Free PeerGuardian Software is, it is extremely to easy use, and after installation, Peer Guardian will update all IP lists and request that you set up your personal preferences for the options. 

There is also a  Free ListDrop Software for Efficient Peer-Peer File Transfers with PeerGuardian. ListDrop is a fast and easy utility for merging and optimizing your lists. The ListDrop supports importing and exporting of the P2P, P2B, and eMule .DAT formats. It will also automatically decompress 7-Zip, GZip, and Zip compressed lists.

This Multiplatform Peer-Peer Security Software mainly finds use in the Peer2Peer sharing community to block the RIAA, MPAA and other organizations from tracking a sharer’s IP address and online activity, in addition to that, Peer Guardian can also block adware, spyware, government IP’s and educational IP’s if needed by you.
