What about an entry in your local DNS (what your hosts use) that gives a bogus 
ip (127.0.0.1?) for *.badhost.com?  Then users can never connect to 
badhost.com. 

I don't know too many FW's that allow you to use a URL in a rule.  IIRC, 
CheckPoint-FW1 did/does, but they recommend against it due to overhead.

As pointed out, Squid or other light weight white/blacklist thingy might be in 
order.

Ok, very simple put:

To do this without shell scripting, but this could avoid filter future IP 
addresses:
1. DIG HOSTNAMEs and add ipfw block rules for those IPs
2. DIG HOSTNAMEs and add a null rule

To block all *.hostname and future IP addresses of any of *.hostname, there 
must be written a shell script, that analyzes all requests [have no idea how to 
execute a shell script LIVE!!!, any idea on this topic?].

Do a whois hostname.com taking note of their ip-address range. Then, for ipf, 
put this in your rules file.

### EXAMPLE ###

block in quick on fxp0 from 192.168.0.0/16 to any
block out quick on fxp0 from any to 192.168.0.0/16
