Thanks
How would I resolve this as it is blocking sites we need access to ?
I would suggest you NOT allow your customers or clients free access to
spamsites. Whoever nul-routed that domain seems to have a good reason
for it.
As a UK government official you should understand when I say Steve has
them Spamhaus listed.
http://www.spamhaus.org/rokso/evidence.lasso?rokso_id=ROK6042
dpbolvw.net appears to be a domain owned by cj.com a subsidiary of
valueclick.com AKA hispeedmedia.com a well-known long-term spammer.
cj.com has with several hundred reports of click-thru spamming under
their belt already for just that site this month. themselves have
several thounsand reports and the more links down the chain the more it
blows out.
(Hint: to have a ROKSO report you *MUST* have been kicked off at least
*three* ISP for spamming abuse.)
Oh and in case you thought they might provide a service, they appear to
be using/selling the *free* google tracker service instead of their own
while claiming to be an 'original marketing information source'.

Hi
When I try and go to http://accenture.employeesavings.net/PhoneSpot
I get the following error
While trying to retrieve the URL:
http://www.dpbolvw.net/click-1753432-10411042
The following error was encountered:
Connection to 127.0.0.1 Failed
The system returned:
(111) Connection refused The remote host or network may be down.
Please try the request again.
Someone has defined, in DNS (but this doesn't seem to be the case) or
via /etc/hosts the IP address of www.dpbolvw.net to the loopback
address. Maybe someone is intentionally blackholing that site. Not
squid's fault or problem in any way.
