I know someone has mentioned Peer Guardian before, and I just wanted to request it myself. I'm new to the forums but not to this site, and I love the portable apps. This is my home page, and my 1 gig goes with me everywhere. I just came across this program and noticed that it was open source, so I figured I'd throw it out there.
Here's a link if you're willing to check it out:

Essentially it's an IP blocker, designed to protect your privacy during Peer to Peer transfers. It was not developed for illegal activity, just to protect privacy. Anyways, let me know what you think.

i think a portable would be great.
and is 1.06MB. I am not 100% sure but i think that might fall under "illegal" software for this site. Anycase, you can contact me and i'll be more than happy to send it.
I've tested it on my pc [where the port was made], a pc that formatted, a server and a 3rd pc [running off the usb drive], all works so far.
From the PeerGuardian Web Site:
PeerGuardian 2 is Open Source, meaning the program code is available online for anyone who wants it. Not only does this allow you to make modifications or even branch off into your own project, but it encourages peer review of the code making sure any bugs are eliminated swiftly. Because PeerGuardian 2 is Open Source, you can rest assured there are no backdoors or spyware included.
As long as you include the source for the launcher (and any other modifications you have made) I'm sure you'll be able to re-post the link to the portable version of PeerGuardian that you made.
