Was this complexity needed?It's just a few lines in bash<pre><code> #!/bin/bash wget "http://adaway.org/hosts.txt" -O- > hosts wget "http://www.malwaredomainlist.com/hostslist/hosts.txt" -O- >> hosts wget "http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.txt" -O- >> hosts wget "http://someonewhocares.org/hosts/zero/hosts" -O- >> hosts wget "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/StevenBlack/hosts/master/data/StevenBlack/hosts" -O- >> hosts wget "http://pgl.yoyo.org/adservers/serverlist.php?hostformat=hosts&mimetype=plaintext&useip=0.0.0.0" -O- >> hosts mv hosts /etc/hosts # Flush DNS cache as per your OS # Mac OS X # dscacheutil -flushcache # Linux # /etc/rc.d/init.d/nscd restart # Linux with systemd: # systemctl restart network.service # Fedora Linux # systemctl restart NetworkManager.service </code></pre> Or in a windows batch file<pre><code> wget "http://adaway.org/hosts.txt" -O- > hosts wget "http://www.malwaredomainlist.com/hostslist/hosts.txt" -O- >> hosts wget "http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.txt" -O- >> hosts wget "http://someonewhocares.org/hosts/zero/hosts" -O- >> hosts wget "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/StevenBlack/hosts/master/data/StevenBlack/hosts" -O- >> hosts wget "http://pgl.yoyo.org/adservers/serverlist.php?hostformat=hosts&mimetype=plaintext&useip=0.0.0.0" -O- >> hosts move hosts %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts ipconfig /flushdns</code></pre>

I'm giving it a try since I had previously used a much short list.One thing to be careful of is auto-completion tools. Something like `ssh <tab><tab>` could dump the 30k list to your console as zsh + prezto does in my case.To workaround this, I run a local DNS server (DNS masq) and provide it 'addn-hosts=/etc/hosts.blacklist' and place the blacklist there.
