A friendly reminder. You may want to consider using Peerguardian2Lite from methlabs.org. It blocks connections from unfriendly IP addresses. Lists on that site can also block ads/spyware/gov/edu/military IP adresses as well.

Lite uses like, zero cpu in pretty much every test the creators have thrown at it and I've never seen it use 01 cpu on my processes list.

p2p is recommended for BT users, but I use p2p/ads/spyware/gov/military lists. Just to be safe.

there's a link to pg2lite on the front page. lite is fully tested and working, but there's like no options to it. (which many users seem to prefer)

I posted the link to the front page so people could get info about it first if they wanted.
Here's a link to the download page of pg2lite:
http://dev.int64.org/pglite.html (get the "PeerGuardian Lite binaries" ) file

blocklists page:

I never tried out Protowall, but from what I understand it can be a bish to deal with. This one is really simple and effective. No settings to tweak to get things right and all.
