It also helps against most unwanted advertising.
Anyone use MSN Messenger? If so, you've probably noticed those medium-sized advertisements at the bottom of the contact list. Well, fire up PeerGuardian with "Block HTTP" on, and you won't see any advertisements on your contact list at all!
According to PeerGuardian those advertisements are coming from "Doubleclick," which is also why some Firefox+MSN Messenger users will occasionally have IE Doubleclick cookies pop up in a report after running AdAware or SpyBot: Search & Destroy.
