Rather than getting list of urls to block, get list of urls that are allowed only. Phishing sites get new urls pretty often, so you would have to update your list very often.

Then please provide an exhaustive list with urls that we should allow.

I don't really see the point of allowing any URLs besides YouTube, Google, TF2C, Steam Community and maybe image hosting sites. These are the only websites for which it makes sense to post in chat (also the only ones I've seen in chat).

www.steamcommunity.com , www.youtube.com , tf2center.com
I see no point in any other sites.

Whitelisting the URLs seems like a best idea, but instead of putting together an exhaustive list in which a few will probably be missed, maybe it could be possible to make users submit a request for a url/website to whitelisted?

Good idea, we could even make a section on the forums for it with a sticky post explaining what the whitelist does and including a full list of currently whitelisted sites.
