Rulesets
-
I kept on receiving errors that the following rules had failed to download.

So I started searching, and found a similarly named ruleset, and was wondering if they were one and the same.

Again, many thanks to BB, and all of the other testers and contributors to this project.
NEVERMIND. I found my answer.

Q. Is there a current list of available download mirrors?
A. Indeed there is. The current list of download mirrors are;hphosts.gt500.org (courtesy of GT500)
hosts-file.malwareteks.com (courtesy of Malware Teks)
hosts-file.montanamenagerie.org (courtesy of Montana Menagerie)

Here is a URL for the MalwareBytes hpHosts feeds: https://www.hosts-file.net/
Feed URLs here: https://hosts-file.net/?s=Download
I would not recommend to use the hphosts.zip feed, as that is only updated once per month… There are new malicious domains added daily, and any False positive domains will not be removed for the full month.... This also applies to the hphosts-partial Feed…
So instead use the individual Feeds for DNSBL...Hope that helps!
