PeerGuardian 2 says you are being watched!

Hey everybody. This is the first blog in which I will be giving you tech advice! HaHa. I am not savvy enough that you should expect many more.

I came across a free program today called PeerGuardian 2. It blocks access from other computers trying to access your IP address. Since I started running it, you wouldn't believe how many people are checking you out! It is definitely scary.

This is a smaller program that runs in the background like your anti-virus. It is also a clean download (Thanks to download.com! They rule.) I recommend you at least try it for a day. After you see what shows up, I guarantee you won't uninstall it. It especially comes in handy if you are a 'downloader'.

In the last 10 minutes, "Chinanet network in Wuhan City Hubei province" has tried to access my IP address 11 times.
