At http://www.afterdawn.com/news/archive/5846.cfm down below, it has
discussions, and the second item asks about spyware or whatever.  The
third items says to only download from official sites.

At
http://www.softpedia.com/get/Security/Firewall/Peer-Guardian-Pr.shtml
there's a link that says "Read user reviews (1)", which leads to
http://www.softpedia.com/progViewOpinions/14-3-55,.html, in which the
only substantial content is "this version has spyware in it."
