Using too many and/or inappropriate lists may seriously degrade your internet service.
pgl starts automatically at system boot per default. Some preconfigured blocklists are updated once a day. Be warned: this will not only block many unwanted IPs, but in most cases this will result in a limited network availability. This includes your own LAN and router, many webpages, services like eMail, instant messaging or the "weather applet" and your machine's accessibility from the internet.
There are many configuration options to prevent this. E.g. the default is to always allow (whitelist) LAN traffic, DNS server and loopback device. If you are on a public LAN, you probably want to disable this feature.
