This may be a dead horse, but there is a desperate need for a “Hacking” category.  Just today, when modding the Proxy/Anon queue, I found one that should have been categorized as such.

All of OpenDNS’s competing URL filtering solutions have this category, so why not add it?

  Can you further explain your perspective on a desperate need for it? Also curious what type of organization and how many users

   

  and to confirm, are you referring to a site hosting hacking tools, tutorials, or?

  Also, OpenDNS is not a "URL filtering solution", but a configurable recursive DNS service.  DNS doesn't know about URLs, just about domain names.

  And this hacking category exists as "Malware" and maybe others and is included in the Umbrella packages of the service.  Do not hope that they give away paid features for free.

  @rotblitz actually, no. They are different. Hacking category includes websites that promote the practice of hacking other users' computers and services. On the other hand, Malware category includes dangerous websites such as online tech support scams.
