General Firewall exclusion rules

    I have a sonic wall firewall, they run a service at a cost per year on the content filtering side of things, but i dont want to go for it, I think that the content filtering may be limited to push me in that direction but i hope not.
    I have tried rules like this example hitler* as i read on other forums that using the symbols . and * or ? ect block domains with these words in them, this filter will take domains directly into it but I cant get the symbols to work, the help files on line that i found were poor, maybe i missed something, compared to a free application like zonealarm the options are poor.

    Anyone any ideas or experience with these filters, I've attached a pic of the screen, please ignore the words i have tired to block, i removed the worst of them lol, i guess i should have just adjusted the jpeg, but you live and learn, also note that each word and domain has to be entered one at a time (i think) I'd love to just pop in a list but I dont know if that would work, hense the rules would save me time

    Thanks

    thanks that would be great, the subscription to the filtering service is a bit of a scam i think , or else i dont know how to use the custom stuff properly
