Replace seemingly abandoned malware lists with urlhaus list
Related issues: - uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues#1116 - uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues#984 It has been found that the two malware lists uBO uses by default appear to be essentially no longer maintained. urlhaus list[1] has been identified by the community as being well maintained and as being actually useful as a default malware-related list in uBO, since it's being updated every day from a database of top domains and specific URLs identified as serving malicious content. Additionally, the maintainer of urlhaus list has taken steps to increase compatibility with uBO[2]. The decision has been to replace the current two malware- related lists with urlhaus list, which will be enabled by default in uBO -- and this means that list will be part of uBO's package from now on. For those who have the two removed malware lists enabled, these will be moved to the custom lists section -- they will still be enabled. It is suggested users remove them from their selection of lists as their usefulness at this point is questionable.
