      It is possible to use/integrate something like the BlueTack's Hosts Blocking File (/etc/hosts)?

        Take a look into the Alias System.
        Feel free to make such a list and publish it for everyone to use.

        We do what we must, because we can.

          Use the alias import feature.  On the Alises screen there is an arrow pointing up, click on it then you can paste a list of ip's, etc.

            Really, in which version?
            My 1.2 final doesn't show this.

                I would like to just bring this up again since we have 1.3 available to us. Can I see an example of an entry? I am not sure that I am getting it right. I make the alias, it saves, but when I make the rule it gets upset. I am going to plug away a bit more at it, but if someone has an example I can work off I would love it. :)

                EDIT:
                Okay, I found that I was just being dumb. I have it sorted now, but I am wondering if there is a size limit to the number of lines in my alias import?

                Okay, I just tried to feed it this list. And it's just sitting there and the DNS Forwarder stopped working. Once I get more info I will let you know.

                EDIT AGAIN!: oops… List to long, broke my post.
