One of the major drawbacks of using dynamic ip lists is that they will be gone if you reboot.
If you have a 3 to 7 day update schedule then you can go days without your blacklists which somewhat defeats the purpose. A solution for this would be to add an additional schedule that has a start-time=startup that downloads & runs all of the scripts.
