Ip - blocking like PeerGuardian


Hi!

I just wonder is there something like PeerGuardian or Protowall for linux? If anyone don't know what that is: A program that uses a blocklist to block known dangerous ip-number from for example anti piracy organizations and commercial companies that gives you tracking cookies and so on. It can be quite useful for p2p....
