Very few (one?) offer combined lists (ipfilter.dat), the rest are manual download only (the url changes every 'X' time, and only updated once a month..)

Thank you.

If they are manual download only this won't help anyway, right?

And what happens if the two (or more) lists specify overlapping IP ranges with different filtering level? Which should be preferred?

Last entry wins. Like if you just copy the lists together into one file, as gav616 is probably doing now.

The manual 'ipfilter.dat' from bluetack is a number of there filters pre-checked/merged, using there own 'Blocklist Manager'
then its presented as a download on there backup site (in emule file format (including filter level lines and such)).
Quote
Another unique Blocklist Manager feature allows us to merge all adjacent IP ranges together to help minimise overall file sizes and help improve the efficiency of IP blocking programs.

what this feature will do is get the raw PG file format and just copy the lists together into one file, like you say.
Less efficient then going through a checking/deleting/merge/cut process (another system to write :S), but as you said, Last entry wins.
