How to block www.iheart.com

Hi,

Why is it that when I set up a DNS group entry iHeartRadio | Real & Custom Radio Stations - Listen Free Online and drop packets to it, it seems to mess up Facebook and logging in?  For example, if I try to log into Facebook, it just hangs and I'll see in my packet filter logs that I am trying to hit iHeartRadio | Real & Custom Radio Stations - Listen Free Online  If I close the browser and re-open Facebook, it shows I'm logged in.  If it hit sign out, it hangs and again my packet filter logs say I'm trying to access iHeartRadio | Real & Custom Radio Stations - Listen Free Online.  The group definition says there are 51 IP's total.

I just noticed other users were having trouble getting to some other sites.  Refreshing the page solved the problem for most, but not all.  One of the IP addresses the user was being blocked from was 66.162.246.203 which according to whois:
