Especially the "Emerging FW" combined list sounds very interesting.

Speaking about the mentioned Emerging FW list, enabling it as a default sounds reasonable to me. Networks listed there usually are so bad one even does not want to route or peer to it (DROP = Don't route or peer). :-) Could we enable the bogon list as a default for dial-up interfaces in IPFire 3.x ?
