I have compiled a list of IP’s of all LFS servers on the Master List that show up in game to be used with IP filtering software. I don't know if anyone here uses programs such as PeerGuardian 2, but I like to leave it running to keep my computer safe, but it tends to block game servers.
For anybody that uses PeerGuardian 2 (or similar IP filtering program) you may have notice that many of the LFS servers are blocked by even common block lists of just problematic IPs. i.e. Level 1, ads, known spammers, known hackers, spy ware ect...
Leaving PG2 enabled would pretty much stall out the game. I left PG2 running with the previously mentioned lists and made a sandwich while refreshing the LFS server list just to see how many were blocked. 20 minutes and a couple more sandwiches it was still trying to reach servers and only about 100 of 934 had popped up.
I will update the allow list weekly when the server list is near its peak like a weekend afternoon. I am setting the filters to display the maximum number of servers, and hopefully all of the servers listed on the master list will show. The filter includes Private, Public, Empty, Reset allowed, and Cruise servers with ALL cars.
I am working on getting the list hosted at IBlockList for those familiar with the site. Iblocklist hosts lists for PG2 and other IP filtering programs.
For now I threw it up on my dropbox: http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/175620/LFS%20Servers.txt
