iptables is the standard method of filtering network traffic on Linux, 
apparently Peerguardian is a Windows network filter, one that uses 
various 'lists' from elsewhere, but there's no explanation what the 
criteria for these lists are?    I've read peerguardian's website and 
its rather unclear on just what these 'lists' are supposed to block?

it sounds like you want to let various 3rd parties decide just what 
internet servers you can connect to?

anyways, on peerguardian's website, there's a link to something mobloq 
which is apparently peerguardian for linux, and works via iptables.
