Can you provide me with details to contact the persons responsible for the list? I think there is time to discuss some issues officially. I would be also ask you to provide links to samples of software which effectivelly blocks access to our update servers using the list mentioned in this thread. Last edited: Feb 21, It is with deep regret that we must confirm that these people refuse to remove our IP ranges off their list.
They are simply not listening to the argument they are preventing people from getting updates to their software. I rest my case.

And if it's that easy to block anybody, think about the matter the other way around.
I'm sure the "greedics" know the way to fool around it. Update :. Joined: Apr 11, Posts: PG is now detected as a potentially unwanted application and quarantined. Talk about drastic measures.
Yes, I can confirm that PG 2 with update , is detecting pg2. IMO it is not a threat as in a parasite, but an overreaction in an inter-company dispute with the users in the middle. Does this response make it look like P2P monitoring was or is being done? Will other AV's follow suite and lable pg2 as a threat? More later as I'm sure as it "ain't over yet".

Joliet Jake , Feb 21, I agree that bluetack guys are being arrogant but consider this: people who use Peer Guardian aren't the type of users who wouldn't notice it's been detected and quarantined, and PG will end up in the exclusion list of their ESET product, as long as it doesn't prevent them from updating. Show Ignored Content. Beta has a lot of problems. Where can i get the lastest final one. The beta is the one that fixes the P2P issue.
I think mines like beta 6 or 7 or something. Hi there. This is how I believe the problem breaks down. Peerguardian use the blocklists hosted at bluetack. The most used blocklist is the p2p one, and due to people downloading the lists many times a day, bluetack lost their main server see here for more info.
The result is that bluetack now temporarily hopefully host all of the lists EXCEPT the p2p list which is now hosted using a system called coral cache see here for more info. What this means is that the p2p list is hosted using university networks.
Consequently, what you should see when you try to update peerguardian's p2p list is blocks, blocking universities. So, in order to update your p2p list you can do either of these things: - try to update your p2p lists and observe the uni being blocked by peerguardian.
Finally, try updating again and you should be all good. This update effectively does the same as above i. Personally, I use the first method and I can update ok. But the choice is yours.

When you are finished re-enable the educational list and update it. Kopite76 , Feb 17, Interesting that there is some sort of precedence for this matter, as it seems I'm having a similar problem. I've tried to follow the methods instructed by EdtheDuck in his post, however, it seems that it won't work for me. I have just installed pg2 beta 6b on a freshly installed XP OS.
It will update all lists but the p2p. Now I know what your thinking, you've heard it all before, but here's the thing: Before I was forced to re-install windows, I was using pg2 for a while, so I had a list built up of Anti-p2p ip's. I also noticed that everytime I went to update my p2p list, some blocked ip's were popping up. And for some reason I think they were Anti-p2p organizations, like Time-Warner or something.
