This comes as no suprise to anyone here  :roll:

Just tried to check for PG2 updates but couldn't connect.
After further inspection, it appears that PG2 is blocking its own update IP.

Range: Savvis-Sourceforge Split1 Start Range
Destination: 66.35.250.99

Luckily we dont have many users of this poor blocklist here, those who spent the time making a decent program (PG) are being undermined by what seem to be a technically challenged bunch of rude number collectors, blocking 827 million IP's is not enough it seems.

well they have always stated that their host only provides hosting to anti-p2p companies...

blocking their own site is a little silly, like locking your own firewall then wondering why you cant do anything

Gives me visions of a locksmith locking his keys and lockpick tools in his car...

lmao

Probably not the smartest move they have ever made. Thank goodness I gave up on PG a long time ago... Perhaps this is the best thing they ever did for the users

Normally I would say Be good, but in this case, I should say at least be better than THAT!

ROTFLMAO.... i guess this one fits in the 'ooops!' category...

Maybe the folks over at Phoenixlabs aka Peerguardian will have just as much luck getting their IPs removed as anyone else and finally be motivated to .. I don't know .. create and host their own lists and stop relying on the nazi types at BlueTack... :roll:

 

[bughunter]

ponders if advising bluetac that there blocking there own update site would resolve anything..................
since pg2 like winmx and other various p2p programmes are clearly all anti p2p......................
why else would a professionally run organisation like bluetac with there technical excellance add there own update site...............

PG = pathetic goonies ?

[SamSeeSam]

It'd be really funny if they stick to their policy of not removing Ip's
800 million....
According to them, a fifth of the internet is Anti P2P
