Generate a hosts file from URL-blacklist of http://www.shallalist.de/
Goal is to redirect domains of selected categories to 127.0.0.1 thus these domains are blocked on DNS basis
language: PHP 5, needs cURL and PHAR
Installation: simply put php-file to your web-root and run it in browser. Note, that the script must be allowed to create files and folders in its own directory.
When run first, the current full blacklist is downloaded: http://www.shallalist.de/Downloads/shallalist.tar.gz The list is decompressed and saved to a subfolder.
After initial download the list will be updated if last update is older than 1 week.
Based on downloaded list you can select the categories to be included in the hosts file.
After pressing download, a hosts file is sent to the user.
hosts file looks like this:

wget "<URLofPhpFile>?download" -O hosts - select your categories from the list and download the file manually. Open it in an editor. In last line of the header, there is the complete wget command for the selected categories. Just copy and paste it into terminal.
