Took me quite a while to get it working. I used the Blocklist Manager
to import umpteen zillion blocked IP ranges and then used that to
export a list of exclusions to Protowall. The biggest problem I had
was with the Blocklist Manager. Worked a bit bizarrely, I thought. At
least it seemed to have trouble remembering preferences. I think you
have to click "Apply" to your settings or nothing happens. I dunno.

I found one handy use for it was to make up for the lack of a killfile
in DC++.
