HI, for those who want to test an updated country list from a new source before I try to update it on package install, follow these steps on console
Hi Marcello,
This updates correctly. What is the source of the Country code files if you don't mind sharing?
Thanks.

If you guys are interested I have a working BETA for pfBlocker that incorporates features that lots of us would like to see in a new release of pfBlocker. :)

Can't imagine anyone would be intested in that. ;)

Please share. :-D I would love to see this package get a facelift and some TLC. Besides Snort this is one of the must have packages imo.

They say a Picture is worth a 1000 words, so I will post 4 pics.
I have a few fellow members currently helping to Beta test the code. So far so good. I would like to change the behavior of the Rules Creation and the Loading of the Tables in my next round of changes to the pfBlocker Code.
Any programming help would also be appreciated to help expedite the process…. ;)

I can't load any list into pfBlocker that is bigger than 10 MB: it crashes with an out if memory error, even if I choose the Alias creation.

Which Blocklist is that large? Can you post the url? or is this an "Alias" that has multiple Lists within?

I have an I-BlockList paid account; it allows me to build a custom list which is a "compilation" of other available lists. I called this list "torrent", as it is composed by BlueTack Level-1, etc.
Their system generates a custom URL. Then I can use this URL to feed, for example, PeerBlock. The Windows program loads this list flawlessly. I expected that pfBlocker would handle the same list with no problems.

Some of the IBlock lists are not formatted the Same. I know the IBlock Adstrack and the IBlock Prime list have some incompatible characters that will cause pfBlocker to fail.
Try to remove one list at a time to determine which one is failing.

If I load the same lists - one for each row in the pfBlocker pfSense GUI - the package doesn't give the error and works properly. But this is a very tedious and error prone method.

Then the issue is with the total size of the Single List. Can you break it down into 2-3 smaller Main Lists?

The great advantage of one "big" list is that I can change its "composition" without worrying to change the "recipe" in every program that uses that list (pfBlocker, PeerBlock, qBittorrent, etc.). I think that a "professional" tool like pfSense (and it's packages, like pfBlocker) should be able to deal with a list that even the last simple Windows program can handle…

If your into torrents as heavy as you sound… These lists will not save you from the dreaded mail from your ISP or University. What they will help you with, and you will need it, if your into torrents this heavy; is help keep your computer clean and not become a BOT, which it probably already is... :o You need to look into paying for a VPN service or something like that. There are several sites that deal with this, of course you will have to pay a little bit. Life is not free.
Good news is I can block most, if not all, torrent traffic coming out from, or into my home network using pfBlocker and Suricata... 8), I don't get those letters... LOL...

I forgot to mention that I'm using AirVPN and the event(s) that I want to filter out are generated by the AirVPN server (aka the Exit Node) :)

Try System->Advanced-> <firewall nat="">and increase entry [Firewall Maximum Table Entries] to something like 3,000,000.

Are you pasting it on pfbloker gui or linking it to a url?

Looks great.
I've created a php to update lists based on .sh that LinuxTracker sent to me in pm.
I'm not sure if it will be usefull on package as a lot of requests to ip source site may get it from free to paid like first source used on pfblocker.
