I Installed a P2P Blocking Package Tonight
If you're running any p2p software I highly recommend you install Peer Guardian or MoBlock. I run Azureus and see for Kubuntu's DVD and FreeBSD 6.2 just to give back to the community, and I've been seeing strange crap on the firewall logs. So on the advice of a buddy I installed this software which basically keeps a blacklist of known RIAA, MPAA, etc addresses so that when an app on your PC tries to contact them or they try to contact you the packets are dropped. No packets, no evidence collection about what you're doing.
I'll bet not 5s goes by that I don't get a blocked inbound packet from one of these snapperheads. Hell, I just got pinged by Time Warner Telecom and I'm on freaking Everest. These "Technological Systems CJVC" jerkoffs are incredibly persistent. You know, if you're going to write some software to sniff out pirates you might want to make it smart enough to not wind up downloading a bunch of s**t you can legally get for free. http://phoenixlabs.org/pg2 Last edited by Simplex3; 02-02-2007 at 12:34 AM.. |

I only have Norton, it does catch cookies and tracking software, and now it removes them (it didn't used to, I would have to do it manually).
So my question is, how much sh*t am I missing with only norton, because every so many days there are only one or two tracking cookies. Not near the list of simplex (of course there is probably other reasons he has the interest of the UN) |

Laz,
I want you to know I appreciated that thread. It's been very beneficial to me. Now, after that reach-around, I'm going to wash up. |
