      Yes if you copy the list over with winscp. I would also stop Squidguard before hitting the upload button.

        This how I did it.

        1. install package squid and squidguard and go to console menu and press 8 to exit console menu.

        2. chown of /var/squid and /var/squidGuard to proxy:proxy    (ex. chown -R proxy:proxy /var/squid)

        3. create /download  directory

        4. cd /download

        5. pkg_add -r http://62.4.17.14/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6.2-release/All/wget-1.10.2.tbz

        6. /usr/local/bin/wget http://www.shallalist.de/Downloads/shallalist.tar.gz    ( at least you can see download progress using this way)

        7. click to Service>Proxy Content>General Setting

        8. in Blacklist URL = /download/shallalist.tar.gz

        see squidguard1.JPG

        1. click save button

        2. click Upload URL button

        3. click save button (just to make sure)

        4. although it says "SquidGuard service state: STARTED" just click apply button

        5. GOTO Default tab

        6. Follow my example using squidguard2.JPG and squidguard3.JPG or customize as you like but leave Default access [all]

        7. click save

        8. go to ACL tab and create new ACL (click the + button)

        9. for "Source IP Address" put your network address/Masks bit (not ip address) example squidguard4.JPG

        10. for "Destination" –--> customize as you like but leave Default access [all] and click save when finish. (squidguard5.JPG)

        11. go to General Stting tab and click apply button to restart squid (and squidGuard too)

        Note: Make sure in Service>Proxy server>Access Control –-->    the allow subnet is/are the same with (17)  (subnet = network address/Masks bit)

        The End

        BTW it took me about 3 to 4 months to figure this out by looking here and there in the forum.  :)
