Thanks

How would I resolve this as it is blocking sites we need access to ?


I would suggest you NOT allow your customers or clients free access to spamsites. Whoever nul-routed that domain seems to have a good reason for it. As a UK government official you should understand when I say Steve has them Spamhaus listed.

dpbolvw.net appears to be a domain owned by cj.com a subsidiary of valueclick.com AKA hispeedmedia.com a well-known long-term spammer. cj.com has with several hundred reports of click-thru spamming under their belt already for just that site this month. themselves have several thounsand reports and the more links down the chain the more it blows out. (Hint: to have a ROKSO report you *MUST* have been kicked off at least *three* ISP for spamming abuse.)

Oh and in case you thought they might provide a service, they appear to be using/selling the *free* google tracker service instead of their own while claiming to be an 'original marketing information source'.

Hi

When I try and go to http://accenture.employeesavings.net/PhoneSpot

I get the following error


While trying to retrieve the URL:
http://www.dpbolvw.net/click-1753432-10411042

The following error was encountered:

Connection to 127.0.0.1 Failed
The system returned:

    (111) Connection refused The remote host or network may be down.
Please try the request again.

Someone has defined, in DNS  (but this doesn't seem to be the case) or
via /etc/hosts the IP address of www.dpbolvw.net to the loopback
address. Maybe someone is intentionally blackholing that site. Not
squid's fault or problem in any way.
