Hi, just wanted to let you know the new Peerguardian v1.96b (another v2.0 prerelease) doesn't have the overflow errors of v1.95b and also uses much tighter lists (200,000 IPs) as a lot of innocent people were being blocked on the old broader ranges.
PeerGuardian depends on users judgement. If you check the database you'll see that the number of IPs in each range is listed. If this is >1024 be weary as it may block innocent people. PeerGuardian relies on it's userbase as much as they rely on it, so try to be careful with who you block.
It's the biggest complaint (don't worry, usually I get compliments but there's always a few who get annoyed).. that PG blocks wider ranges than it should. Try to stick to tighter ranges. Thanks for your interest and support, really - and if there are any probs let me know..
