I'm a long time user of PG and I've never had any issues. I bought a new computer reloaded it with XP pro sp3 and installed PG2. Lately the program has been crashing on me. There doesn't seem to be any specific trigger and it happens intermittently. I've used the recover function each time and haven't needed to more than once a week. Today, however, I have needed to recover it six or seven times and the crashes are coming closer and closer together. I tried to restart the computer, did everything that I could think of but it's still happening. I was hoping someone would have an idea of how to fix this, or how to figure out what is causing it. Please let me know.

what version do you have installed?

consider switching to PeerBlock.
it is much more stable.

Hi, I'm having the same sort of problems-Do I need to uninstall PeerGardian2 or can I run them side by side? It's just I've my block lists going well and don't want to delete PeerGardian2 until PeerBlock is up and running. Thanks Joffa.

Mmmm..My blocking history not showing anything? Gone back PG2 for now..Need to some time to do some some reading on here..Cheers

There are still a few issues in PeerBlock, most notably affecting a percentage of XP users. (They don't show up on any of my test machines, which makes it difficult to track down...) We are actively working them however: please read the Known Issues post on our forums for more details.

Sorry you're one of the few hitting one of these problems,
