PeerGuardian 2 History File Problem and Solution PDF Print E-mail
Wednesday, 12 March 2008
While PeerGuardian 2 adequately protects peer-2-peer users from connecting to unwanted hosts, it does have one issue. PG2 keeps a history file which over time accumulates and becomes larger and larger. This can take of significant space if it has been laying around for a year. Another problem is that this file can become excessively fragmented causing a degradation in system performance.

Here are the instructions to delete the PeerGuardian 2 history file which will cause a new one to be generated automatically next time the program is started:

  1. Shut Down PeerGuardian
  2. Click Start
  3. Double click My Computer
  4. Double click Program Files
  5. Double click PeerGuardian2
  6. Delete the file history.db (may show up as history without the .db at the end)
  7. Close the Window
