How good is peer block? I mean i did download it for "things" but i mean now it's got me curious i turned it on when i was on here and it blocked at least 10 IP's trying to view what i was doing. Is it really protect me from corporations that will nab you for downloading "free" stuff?
or is it really a waste of time?
To be honest, they can still see your IP. All it does is slow down the connection.
I'd say use Megaupload or similar download pages if you need to be 'safe'. This is for when you are downloading free, legal software of course. Check the torrent sites for the name of what you need, then do a Google search for that name and megaupload. I seem to have the best luck on Filetube sites.
Scan the stuff you download, people out there are shady.

Gee, I wonder why "things" and "free" are in quotation marks?

BUT, at least you were smart enough not to admit it, so I'll give the benefit of the doubt.
