[SOLVED] Online Malicious URL Blocklist Filter for uBo

[ron_1]

So I guess this would be a question only for users of uBlock Origin. I've noticed for the last few days that the filter "Online Malicious URL Blocklist" has a broken symbol next to it. Have been trying to update it but to no avail. Anybody else seeing this?

Probably the server is not reachable, click the 'home' icon beside it to see if it works. Anyway there are tons of other filter lists you can use, mostly EasyList and Dandelion

I've noticed for the last few days that the filter "Online Malicious URL Blocklist" has a broken symbol next to it.

The URL for that filter list changed a long while back. There's an open issue for fixing it on the uBlock Origin Legacy Github site, but since JustOff has evaporated it's still open and unresolved. Basically, you'll have to go into your own uBlock filter settings and manually add the new Online Malicious URL Blocklist filter URL (https://malware-filter.gitlab.io/malwar ... online.txt) as a custom filter at the bottom of the filter lists.

It has not worked for a long time, the new filter is:
https://malware-filter.gitlab.io/malwar ... filter.txt#
I added it to my custom filters.

Thank you.

So...which one of the two should be used, or both?

Disable the obsolete one.

Use the one with "online" in the file name. It is 99% smaller than the other (according to the dev); the large file includes offline stuff that I believe most people don't need.

Cool, thank you @ron_1 for the clarification
