Peer Guardian for the Mac has got to be the most opaque app ever.  At least two apps would not work:

  • Steam
  • Penguin Club

It just silently block them.  No preferences, no UI to selectively pick apps or ports.  It seems to block all non-HTTP socket traffic.

So I set out to uninstall.  Dragging the app into the Trash Can didn’t fix the situation.  Finally I had to uninstall it with the help of AppDelete.  Then, magically, Steam and Penguin Club just worked.
