Tai ugniagiasin4, kuri apsaugos mus nuo šnipinėjimo bei kenkėjų. Ji blokuoja bandymus prisijungti prie kompiuterio iš 5tartinų šaltinių. Ši programa ypač praverčia, kai siunčiamės failus iš P2P tinklų.

It blocks „known bad“ computers from accessing your data
The PeerBlock application was developed to be a new version (aka a „fork“) of the popular Peer Guardian 2 software. It blocks „known bad“ computers from accessing yours, for example governments, corporate entities, and those flagged for anti-p2p activities.
Peer Block maintains the functionality of the original Peer Guardian 2 program, but includes fixes for various issues that remain unaddressed in the latest (~2 year old) version of PG2.
PeerBlock lets you control who your computer „talks to“ on the Internet. By selecting appropriate lists of „known bad“ computers, you can block communication with advertising or spyware oriented servers, computers monitoring your p2p activities, computers which have been „hacked“, even entire countries! They can’t get in to your computer, and your computer won’t try to send them anything either.
What’s New in This Release:
· Signed Driver – We now have a signed driver! If you’re using a 64-bit version of Windows Vista or 7, you will no longer need to test-sign the driver, or hit F8 during boot, or anything else. It should all just work!
· iBlocklist Lists – We’ve updated our standard list URLs to point at iblocklist.com lists instead of the original peerguardian.sourceforge.net ones. They are faster, and are much more reliable – no more „Error contacting URL“ messages! We will also upgrade your pre-existing lists from sourceforge.net hosted ones to iblocklist.com ones. Also note that the „Gov“ list has been removed, since its contents were merged with the „P2P“ list long ago.
· Installer Rewrite – Our newest Dev Team member, XhmikosR, has pretty much completely rewritten the installer from scratch. Most importantly, it should actually work now, even during uninstall! (Not that you’ll ever want to uninstall PeerBlock, of course, but just in case…)
· Updated List Manager – Reworked this window a bit,…
