URL Blocking

Anonymizers Sites and proxies that act as an intermediary for surfing to other Web sites in an anonymous
fashion, whether to circumvent Web filtering or for other reasons. For example, blog.go2.tw,
anonymizer.com, www.qu365.com.
Botnets Sites that use bots (zombies) including command-and-control (C&C) servers.
Compromised Sites that have been compromised by someone other than the site owner in order to install
malicious programs without the user's knowledge. Includes sites that may be vulnerable to a
particular high-risk attack. For example, www.wokoo.net, movie.sx.zj.cn.
Malware Sites that install unwanted software on a user's computer with the intent to enable third-
party monitoring or make system changes without the user's consent. For example,
www.tqlkg.com, aladel.net.
Network Errors Sites that do not resolve to any IP address. A site may not be able to resolve to an IP address
if, for example, the site is no longer available, the site is temporarily offline, network access
to the site is down, the DNS server address record is wrong, the DNS server has another
problem, the site has maintenance/repair work going on, or the site has been hacked.
Parked Domains Sites that are inactive, typically reserved for later use. They most often do not contain their
own content, may simply say "under construction," "purchase this domain," or display
advertisements. For example, www.moemoon.com, artlin.net, img.sedoparking.com.
Phishing & Fraud Sites that are used for deceptive or fraudulent purposes (e.g. phishing), such as stealing
financial or other user account information. These sites are most often designed to appear
as legitimate sites in order to mislead users into entering their credentials. For example,
optimizedby.rmxads.com, 218.1.71.226/.../e3b.
Spam Sites Sites that have been promoted through spam techniques. For example,
img.tongji.linezing.com, banner.chinesegamer.net.
