Why did you tell it to add that url and delete that url? I've been successful in blocking the ads on that site. I just looked and I have these entries in /ads/urls.diff: -graphics4.nytimes.com/ads -graphics4.nytimes.com/RealMedia/ads -nytimes.com/RealMedia/ads Are you redirecting the ads section of your squidGuard.conf file to a 1x1.gif?

Love it. Now the questions. 1) Is there a procedure on "submitting" domains and URLs for inclusion into the blacklists ? 2) I'm having a problem understanding how some sites seems to bypass squidguard redirects. In my db/ads/urls.diff, I added the following: -nytimes.com/realmedia/ads +nytimes.com/realmedia/ads And executed squidGuard -u. The urls.db file was updated. But I'm still getting ads based on this URL. Even after flushing my local cache. I even wiped and rebuilt the squid cache. Still getting ads ALL OVER the www.nytimes.com homepage. I looked in the page source and the ad image sources generally come from http://graphics<#>.nytimes.com/RealMedia/ads/......... From reading the docs for squidGuard, I would think the URL I added would block these ads. What am I doing wrong? - ........................................................ ......... ..- -. .. -..- .-. ..- .-.. . ... ............ .-- .. -. -... .-.. --- .-- ... -.. .-. --- --- .-.. ...
