Hi Tapio, see upstream response below for a workaround. The version in the current stable release is not affected by this bug.

This was changed in AIF 1.9.2h. As a workaround, this should work for Facebook via IPv4: -- Block Facebook from the AIF box: (AIF 1.8.8.o) HOST_DENY_TCP_OUTPUT="69.63.181.12>80 69.63.189.11>80 69.63.189.16>80" or for LAN clients: (AIF 1.8.8.o) LAN_INET_HOST_DENY_TCP="0/0>69.63.181.12:80 0/0>69.63.189.11:80 0/0>69.63.189.16:80" -- Any remaining blocked hosts by destination address can be implemented similarly for AIF 1.8.8.o.
