Daemon Tools catalogs your disc images and IP address, without permiss

Daemon Tools, the popular virtual drive/disk mounting program has a service called MountSpace that keeps track of all the disks (.ISO files) that people are mounting and running in Daemon Tools. The program hashes every image you mount and sends it to MountSpace servers with or without permission. Combined with your IP address, and probably more, it doesn't take a genius to realize this is a huge privacy issue.

Selecting "Don't allow MountSpace to use my mount statistics" doesn't actually turn off MountSpace.

The only way to block MountSpace is to block 212.117.184.51 and 212.117.185.149 in your firewalls.
