⚠️ CAUTION: ⚠️
As I-BlockList seems to be migrating towards restricting blocklist downloads to registered users only (see bottom of this page), IP Filter now requires specifying a username and a PIN (via IBL_USER and IBL_PIN in ipfilter.conf) to use the I-BlockList feature. Note that registration with I-BlockList is free of charge. Unregistered users might experience errors due to I-BlockList redirecting downloads to a captcha page (see issue #8).

For now, the advice is as follows:
If ipfilter-v4.4 still works for you, keep using it. If you are experiencing issues, register with I-BlockList and migrate to ipfilter-v4.5.

Changes:

  • Added support for downloading blocklists from I-BlockList as registered user (by supplying username and PIN via configuration items IBL_USER and IBL_PIN). Fixes issue #8
  • Obfuscate I-BlockList username and PIN in console/log output (to prevent leaking sensitive information via logs and/or when posting script output on GitHub)
