      See pictures for after enabling and disabling pfblocker-devel. I used the wizard to setup and I believe only configured DNSBL. For the first few days it was working well. Definitely upped the CPU usage but never to a constant 99%. Then one day the internet was becoming slow and I noticed the CPU Usage was at 99% and temps in the 70s Celsius. I looked at the reports and saw that scribe.roku.com was getting rejected many many times per minute so I whitelisted that and rebooted. But, even so the cpu usage was constantly at 99%. It is now disabled and all is well. Does pfblocker need an Intel CPU?

          @dennypage I will look into that, thanks. Is it likely to be implemented in a release version of pfblocker in the future?

            @uzumaki I'm sure it will, as time permits. I think @BBcan177 is very busy currently.
