Amos, thanks for the response.
there are no duplicates I have allready sorted and cleared any dupes
there were. with cat and sed.
here is a sample of the blacklist format im using
------------------
www.example.com
example.com
------------------
Now I would not consider those "duplicates" because if I dont specify
www.example.com they can still get into the site even if example.com is
being blocked.
Question, am i being silly by doing this? Can I simply use a wildcard
instead?
Yes:
.example.com
Final statement:
I got the errors before I added the second www listings to the file
so It happens whether or not they are "duplicates"
Depends on your squid version what they detect. Some older Squid can
complain about the combo the wrong way around. Or detect example.com and
www.example.com overlap ignoring the absence of the wildcard. But the
warning only happens when one of the two is dropped.

I have a blacklist of about 1 million domains when I reload squid I get
about, a million of these error messages. Should I do something to
correct this error message? because squid seems to be functioning
just fine otherwise, it is indeed blocking the sites as I have
configured it to do.
The message already answers your question.
To silence the warnings sort and de-duplicate the list before loading it
into Squid.
