dnsbl.proxybl.org offline?

dcline97
This morning I got a bunch of calls about all of our websites/portals taking 20+ seconds to load a page.  I jumped on our web server and it was running fine so I logged into the UTM and opened the WAF live log and saw a ton of these for every page request:

DNS lookup for 83.16.168.192.dnsbl.proxybl.org. failed

This the the dns reputation lookup that we current have turned on.  It appears that proxybl.org has had it's DNS wiped out!

I have temporarily turned off the reputation lookup and things are again running normal.  Just thought I would share in case anyone else is experiencing this.

    And... as predicted, the next up2date (9.308) will remove the dead blacklist from the config, apparently:

    34426 Since few days dnsbl.proxybl.org is not reachable anymore
