Download several lists from https://www.iblocklist.com/lists and concatenate them into one .p2p file. Particularly useful for qBottirrent, but can be used for other softwares too.
This type of file can be directly loaded in several Bittorrent clients like qBittorent, Ktorrent or others... Currently, these lists are downloaded, but you can easily add or remove some by editing the script:
- ads
- badpeers
- bogon
- bogon (cidr-report.org)
- dshield
- edu
- hijacked
- level1
- level2
- level3
- Microsoft
- pedophile
- rangetest
- spyware
1. Give to the script the right permissions with: chmod u+x dl-p2p-lists.sh.
2. Run the script with: ./dl-p2p-lists.sh and follow the final instructions.
You can run the script by simply double clicking on dl-p2p-lists.vbs. Nothing visible will happen until it is finished (1 or more minutes depending on your Internet connection), where a popup will show telling you the script is finished.
For Windows, you need the bin folder as it contains an executable for wget, to download the lists.
The created file will be located in %TEMP%\qbittorrent\list.p2p, so usually in C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Temp\qbittorrent\list.p2p.
NOTE: Compared to the Linux script, nothing is parallelized (one download and one extraction at a time). Moreover, for some reasons, the Windows script adds a lot of duplicated lines in the final file. So you may think that the Linux script is missing stuff, but it is more like the reverse. Anyway, it still works fine enough.
You can setup the path to the created link in Tools -> Options... -> Connections. At the bottom of the page, you have the section IP filtering where you can put the correct path, that depends on your OS (see above).
Every now and then (like every 2 days), you can run the script, and once it is finished, simply refresh the IP filtering in qBittorrent by clicking on the green arrow.
