Set up privoxy and DansGuardian. Followed THIS guide for the main setup, and THIS to see how whitelisting can be done.

In the bannedsitelist file I set a blanket block (using **). Then in the exceptionsitelist I added a few sites to test with, and put them like so, at the end of the file:

bbc.co.uk
google.com
*gov.uk

(last one I was going to test if wildcards work - not seen anything saying if they do or not).

But when I navigate to any of the sites (on the exception list or not) they're all blocked by the blanket block.

What've I done wrong?

In the exceptionsitelist file, move the sites you're whitelisting upwards, under the first set of comments - above the time limiting options.

Here's a pastebin for an example.
