    Regex
    - More efficient
    - Can properly detect 10. hosts now
    - Case insensitive
    - Includes ftp/ftps
    - added ^ so detections must start a string (so redirect urls dont FP)
    - https://regex101.com/r/DOPCdB/14

    ThreatMetrix script dynamic detection
    - Lexis Nexis is one of the worlds largest data brokers. Most of the sites that are port scnaning you are running their script called "threatmetrix" these scripts collect 416 pieces of personal information which is then encrypted (using XOR) into an image and sneakily sends it to a server that looks legit but then redirects to LexisNexis' main servers.
    - Moral of the story is this is a insane over-reach and invation of privacy. Port Authority now dynamically blocks ALL of these servers so you should never have to worry about this :)
    - Lastly, I added a notification so you know when this script is detected and blocked.
