I think it actually can be quite interesting which "db" you use. As not all blacklists are created equal, some rather, are much better than others. While using blacklists in the conf is an option, I see that a greater focus for broader support of third party plugins will be vital to offering a better selection of blacklists for squid proxy at squidblacklist.org, taking this into consideration, I have come to understand that to provide a wider range of options, we must support formats for third party plugins. I will begin work to address the broad needs of the community immediately as it applies to my own works. > > For those who wish to use the core functionality of ufdbguard, there > is also an API available. > > Marcus > > - Signed, Fix Nichols http://www.squidblacklist.org
