Torrent ipfilter

You are much safer running with ipfilter than not. Keep in mind, it only blocks the provided IP range in ipfilter.

Given that you are on a college network I recommend you get Blocklist Manager and download the list which includes EDU and government institutions.

How do I add one of these blocklists to Transmission? It starts to download but then I get an error message saying:. The specified blocklist file did not contain any valid rules. Oh no not another sleepless night. I don't care to whom they connect to. They can download from the other peers in the swarm. I just don't want to seed to those peers. In my case though they did show up in the peers tab and i was seeding to them.

As you can see, i haven't finished seeding my torrent and there's a bunch of seeders according to the stats of utorrent. There are also a bunch of leechers with the same IP only the last 2 numbers change and port number. Maybe they are there for the protection of the uploader?

Fine with me. Maybe there's no harm connecting and seeding to them? Also fine. I still seed my torrent through other peers. Maybe i achieved nothing but the illusion of protection by blocking them? Triple fine. I didn't feel comfortable with it and it just took a minute to block them.

No harm with that.
