nullclick's Issues

Move block list class object.

Given that multiple functions rebuiled structure or reaccess data it would more correct to create a blocklist object to manipulate thoughout use.

No check for block list presence in add_site()

Allows user to attemp to add a site when list isnt present. Does not push to host file, but does not indicate to user lack of list presense.
