Again last night I received the same message after being away from my computer
for a
while (two of them again). So it must have something to do with the computer
idling

These sqlite "Disk I/O Errors" are pretty hard to figure out actually - they're
reported to us by the third-party code we use to write out your history to a
logfile
(history.db), and basically mask the OS-specific error causing the problem.
Supposedly these errors may be indicative of a failing disk, so I would
recommend
running chkdsk and/or some other low-level diagnostics tool specific to your
harddrive to make sure it's good.
Barring any problems found there, since we really have no way of understanding
what's
happening underneath the covers here, there are a couple of things you could
try.
The first would be to stop PeerBlock, then rename your history.db file and let
PeerBlock recreate it when you restart it. If the file was sitting on a bad
block or
something this should help with that.
If after that you continue seeing the errors, you can go into your PeerBlock
Settings
and change the leftmost dropdown box in the History section to be "Log None".
This
will completely prevent PeerBlock from using the third-party code that's giving
us
this error, but will also mean that you'll have no history other than what
shows up
in your main PeerBlock display.
Good luck, and please let us know how things end up working out!

Ok yea I'll do some of the stuff you suggested. I also got a .dmp file that for
some
reason I just noticed even though it was on my desktop. I'm going to attach it,
maybe
it can give some insight.

So just a quick update. I use diskeeper which is awesome, but it wasn't turned
on
because another program was blocking it; therefore, my disk had like 25,000
fragments
all created in the past few days. Very likely to be the problem. Thank you for
pointing that out. I hope that fixes the prob. I'll update if I have anything
else to
share.

Sounds like the aforementioned workarounds are resolving the problem for
people, so
what we should do here is trap this error and minimally present a better error
message explaining the problem and what people can do about it, and potentially
offer
to try deleting/recreating the history.db file for people.
Marking as targetted for 1.1, since quite a few people have been reporting this
of late.

I had this problem... I went to the history.db file and saw it was 2.7 GB!
Removed
it... set to LOG NONE... everything works perfectly now! That issue was causing
my
Windows7 to BLUE SCREEN before figuring this out... BAD TIMES!

Same issue as gregpetersen. Some other items to note:
1. I'm running Peerblock on a WHS machine. I am able to easily reproduce this
error
if logging into the server via RDP as a different user than the one that
originally
launched Peerblock.
2. I also had the history.db issue. Not sure if related to #1, but earlier
comments
caught my eye.
