      ok cool, blocking ips.  But would like to incorporate I-Blocklist subscription list.  Not sure what the proper format might be since a username and id are part of the url.

      possible?

      I'm not really sure. My best guess would be to remove all the links you have and just add the subscription list. See if you get the counter to go up. If so then it works, if not then we can try to think of something else. Let me know, I'm curious.

        Hi there,

        I think there might be an incompatibility between IP Blicklist/Country Block and the HAVP antivirus proxy. Every time I start the blocklist(s) HAVP stops proxying and gives an error for every URL. Also, the control buttons to save settings only work on Firefox, Neither IE or Opera can activate them.

        Hope this helps to quash a bug!

          The IE incompatibility is an issue that I haven't been able to fix yet. Supermule challenged me with fixing it and I was unable to find a fix. If you would like to help, I would appreciate it. The best thing I can say right now is use FF or Chrome, who uses IE or Opera anymore anyway.

          I will test with HAVP. Thank you for helping out with the project.
          EDIT: Does HAVP break when you have logging enabled in the package?

              Thanks for the reply! You know what, I have not tested whether it is the logging part that kills HAVP. I will try today with logging disabled on both your packages to see if HAVP likes that better.

                  I tried IP Blocklist without logging enabled and it still broke HAVP. I was sad to have to uninstall IP Block… :-(

                  In other news, however, looks like your Country Block is working fine without interfering with other packages. Only small issue I have seen with it is that it does not start upon boot...

                  Thanks for your software!

                    What version of pfsense are you running? Embedded?

                    Countryblock will start on startup as will IP-Blocklist. Make sure /usr/local/etc/rc.d/countryblock.sh or ipblocklist.sh is there. Check the permissions of the file. I am still testing HAVP compatibility. .

                      atma.es and iblocklist.com now host a list that blocks attackers who try to spy or remotely control others' computers by means such Microsoft remote terminal, SSH, Telnet or shared desktops.
                      Sites spreading virus, trojans, spyware, exploits, fake identities/agents, DDoS attackers and Port scans are also in the list.

                      atma url: http://www.atma.es/atma.p2p
                      iblocklist url: http://list.iblocklist.com/files/tzmtqbbsgbtfxainogvm.gz

                      The list is updated daily. I recommend that you include this list with your other lists.

                          Currently its not possible, but I did request it or at least let them know reason for asking.  Another challenge to tackle at some point.

                            There is a trick I use that you may be able to use for a subscription list. Using Firefox, download the list like normal and save it somewhere temporary. Now in firefox, in the download manager, right click on the downloaded file and click copy download location or url. This is the true URL, try to paste that into the package and see if that works.

                              If I add several list, can I temporarily disable any of the list if I need to just like peerguardian?

                                It's all or none. You can uncheck the "Enable IP-Blocklist" check box and click save to disable.

                                    That's been talked about several times on this topic. The webserver processes the ipblocklist script via php. It will run out of memory because of the way the webserver is configured. You can edit how much memory is dedicated for the webserver, however the script still runs without changing anything.
                                    Just wait for the browser busy or loading animation (even during the out of mem error it's still running when the loading animation is present) to complete. Then reload the page (But do not 'resend')

                                          yup lvl 1 tried all the other stuff for  mem increase with no success as well. as an aside ive just re-installed pf sense due to hdd completely dying on me. after installing iblocklist  and the lvl 1 it would seem that it is not loading all the ip ranges and I have almost half the number compared to peerblock thats running on windows.I've left the list continuing until the icon finished is animation in the tab then go back to the home page and back to iblocklist to check whats running etc.I dont have a clue as to whythere are less ip's , any thoughts.

                                            Is the number of IPs, just for the lvl1 list, 223972 or 241992? I see what's happening here.
                                            Your Lvl1 List is in fact working perfect and blocking all the IPs. The way the package gets that number is by counting how many lines are in the rule that is created which not only represents IPs but also Networks! I will update the package to reflect the correct verbiage.
