Block IPs on local machine

Post by Sargeras »

I use PeerGuardian2 for whenever I download something via Torrent, and last night after my download was finished I kept PG2 up and went to bed. When I woke this morning I noticed my log was full of "SafeNet Inc." attempting to connect to my machine all night and most of today.

I have a linksys router, but it doesn't have any options to block any incoming connections, only outgoing. I want something similiar to an .htaccess file for my local machine to setup to block their IPs (thanks ARIN), without having to keep PG2 up all the time since it does interfere with a lot of other things I connect to.

Danke~
