Raw message 

Morning all.
Turned out to be a simple but silly bug that was causing the restarts 
every 5 minutes. We'd lookup the bogus-nxdomain ip address so we could 
block it, and then 5 minutes later we'd look it up again, however it was 
blocked so we'd not include it, and see-saw between the 2 states.
It's been hard coded for now (can't work out any better way to do it 
unfortunately without pulling in more libraries to query an external DNS 
server), so if it ever changes we'll have to update it in the source.

Grab 3.7.6 with a "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade" to fix 
your issues now! :-D

Thanks for the patience.

Tim
