Free alternative to I-Blocklist?

[uninfected1]

Since I-Blocklist started charging, are there any free alternatives, particularly regarding anti-p2p lists?

Public Block Lists of Malicious IPs and URLs - Select Real Security

Thanks for the link. I can't see any lists there that are specifically p2p though, for instance, like the iBlocklist one that used to be a default list with Peerblock.

Peerblock still updates anti-p2p?

 

[uninfected1]

Not. It did until recently by including iBlocklist's anti-p2p lists as one of its free default lists. Now you simply get a message saying 'subscription required'. What I'd like to know is whether there are any similar anti-p2p lists that are free.

 

[Andytay70]

How odd? the list manager is saying 6 lists 6 up to date 0 failed updating!

 

[Andytay70]

I just deselected p2p list clicked ok then re-enabled clicked ok and the list updated?

 

[uninfected1]

So when you update, it doesn't say subscription required next to Default P2P list like mine does?

 

[Andytay70]

no, it updates like the other lists!

 

[uninfected1]

Well, if anyone knows how to solve this I'd really appreciate some feedback.

Just use the bluetack level 1 list.. or try for a complete change .. I2P Anonymous Network

 

[uninfected1]

@Rishi Thanks a lot. That Bluetack level1 anti-p2p list is just what I want.

Edit: That bluetack level1 lists is the Default P2P list that Peerblock uses, and when I try to add it it says it's already included, so why is it asking for a subscription when it's free? Very confused.

OK, fixed it. I don't know what the problem was but I clean installed Peerblock and everything works fine now. thanks for the help everyone.

The original post is correct, iblocklist is no longer updating their lists so of course they always say they are already up to date, plus you have to pay them $10 per year to have access to the lists that aren't even being updated anymore. I would also like to know if their are any alternative lists for this purpose that aren't charging. Preferably without the argument.

how different is your lists from the rest?

Your website seems like a rush made page, no about us or anything.

I have allowed the post simply to find out more.

I use a scheduled task to download the hosts file from here
GitHub - StevenBlack/hosts: Extending and consolidating hosts files from several well-curated sources like adaway.org, mvps.org, malwaredomainlist.com, someonewhocares.org, and potentially others. You can optionally invoke extensions to block additional sites by category.

Into the Windows folder. Disabled Dnscache since it slows down when you have a big hosts file and instead use a separate cache resolver.

It would appear that either the future has ended or fee was spelled wrong. There is a fee of $2.99 per month to use these lists.
