PeerGuradian is a special firewall software designed to block the IP ranges of RIAA, MPAA and similar organizations and authorities. The list of IP ranges to be blocked is freely configurable and you can add new IP ranges from a WWW service.
And the catch here is that copyright organizations and authorities ARE active on P2P networks like Direct Connect, Kazaa and quite likely others too. We have tested the PeerGuardian and yes - we have received reports of blocked connection attempts from RIAA IPs.
PeerGuardian is freeware and available at the following URLs.
