# INSERT YOUR OWN RULE(S) HERE TO ALLOW ACCESS FROM YOUR CLIENTS

update-squid-adservers.sh:
#!/bin/sh

### short script that downloads a list of ad servers for use with
### squid to block ads.
###
### details on configuring squid itself can be found here:
###
###    http://pgl.yoyo.org/adservers/#withsquid
###
### - originally by Stephen Patterson <steve@lexx.uklinux.net>
### - butchered by Peter Lowe <pgl@yoyo.org>
