Obviously Matt0401 is one person I won't be sharing with. A big zero in his shared. Why should I share 150+ GB with someone who shares zero. People need to start somewhere but his attitude is no matter what to share zero! That's called "Leeching"! There's other names also. No matter what guise or excuse or smoke-screen you want to use. (By gads I'm sharing a single file ... the authorities might bust me despite it'll cost them multiple thousands of dollars to even arrange to get to my front door. In my country warrants need to be signed by a j' & need sufficient evidence.) Obviously Matt0401 is not p2p but p2 me "only"!!! And what's more without any sign of guilt! I do NOT believe that is anything that should be promoted anywhere. Selfishness no matter what excuse you put to it. "I, me & myself!" So much for sharing, & share & share alike community thinking. Oh there's no thumbs down smiley. lol

There's also a mac version of Peerguardian but it has a slightly different name (PeerProtector I think.) Unfortunately the interface version is ONLY available for Tiger users. Earlier users can only use it from the command line & then, since PG's move to & fro sites ... you might not find the link to instructions or even the prog. My discussion with the present OSX dev was basically ... unless you're using Tiger ... Panther users are on their own! Whilst Mac OSX users don't need to concern about virii, they do about this issue about being checked up upon.
