Add adbox.lv and b.adbox.lv to the blocklist. Those domains serve ads for Latvia's biggest email provider.

Hello! Thank you for opening your first issue in this repo. It’s people like you who make these host files better!

Thank you for this UÄ£is @ugjka.

We generally don't block company websites, only the subdomains they use to deliver adware, tracking, or worse. Advertising is a legal business employing millions of people worldwide. We're not here to deplatform companies, just their pipelines.

Their domain is inbox.lv

Oh, I see, the ad delivery is done via b.adbox.lv and adbox.lv shouldn'd be blocked
