Well Jay..there are no spy's other than the RIAA/MPAA and FBI on occassion passing thru on
PeerGuardian....but that is the only spying that happens, when one of a PG db'd rat
attempts to obtain your file list..As far as I can see as long as PeerGuardian is running
and up to date, you will not have much in the line of weasel's getting in...
