peerblock

About this tag
PeerBlock is a Windows application that filters network traffic by blocking connections from known IP ranges associated with surveillance, advertising, or other unwanted sources. It is often used as a modern alternative to PeerGuardian 2, with support for Windows 7 and Vista in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. Users may encounter issues such as persistent connections on port 137 despite blocking NetBIOS, or problems with PeerBlock not starting automatically. The program requires a signed driver to load without manual intervention on recent Windows versions. PeerBlock is not a firewall but works alongside one to manage traffic based on constantly updated block lists.
