PeerBlock is a free software program that allows users to download torrents in a safe manner.

Its open source nature means that if you are not satisfied with the software's performance today, you might find it quite useful at a future point in time after the community-at-large has enhanced its features and operations. This is an open source software that is available for upgrade/improvement by the programming community across the world. Add in the fact that Internet service providers frown upon the use of torrents and it is easy to see why people are looking for a cloak of anonymity. The use of torrents exposes one to potentially dangerous files. We hope to see a new version released as soon as possible. Note: Although individual sites flagged this software as "Discontinued" and there is no new version being released since 2014, FossHub decided to list PeerBlock because of the numerous positive reviews that this app received and also for being truly one of the fewest open source firewalls available.

As soon as a new version is released (please read the note below), we will update it. Its primary purpose is to block "known evil" machines from accessing yours to achieve this, it uses IP block lists provided by which is also currently the official mirror for the existing listed version (1.2). It is being described on the official homepage as a fork of the well-known PeerGuardian 2 software. PeerBlock is a free (among the few) open source personal firewalls.
