Can I Be Safer? - Club CDFreaks

I'm running Azareus with PeerGuardian2 in the background. Do I need to configure Az differently than default for added security?

I'd use the SafePeer addin function as well, having created a file using BlockList Manager.

Alternatively don't download anything illegal.

Of course, nothing illegal...thought of it never crossed my mind

I installed the plugin, anything I need to do or is default install good enough?

I'm also running zonealarm.

Boy, this azureus program is MILES better than Bittorrent...

I'd also recommend that.

ZoneAlarm is fine.

With SafePeer I use a IP filter file created by BlockList Manager in PeerGuardian format.
I needed to edit the safepeer.properties file to point to my file.

The relevant part of that file is here:-
