Duplicates in 70_sare_ratware.cf and 70_sare_header0.cf?

Dear Bob,

While were at it, could you have a look at 70_sare_ratware.cf and
70_sare_header.cf?
I have got the feeling that some (all?) Ratware checks are duplicated in
both rules.
If it is, the 70_sare_ratware.cf set should disappear from the SARE site
(and RDJ).
It is confusing and not a good idea to have double hits...

Thanks for the URI Rule, I'm gonna try it!

Cheers,
       Harrie

I'll miss it. Ratware is such a picturesque and fun name considered
to "Uri". The latter sounds like making liquid waste.

Done.  However, that shrank 70_sare_ratware.cf to two URI rules, which
can go into the new URI rule set.

These will be migrated before the end of the month, and
70_sare_ratware.cf will go empty (to avoid RDJ failures), and then will
be deleted some time next month.
