This only applies to the first rule;  the rest are part of a different list:

http://www.surbl.org

Checking from where I'm sitting, I don't see it listed.

If you're still getting hits on these rules there's a good chance that
the DNS cache you're using is either modifying the negative results (ie,
similar to http://www.surbl.org/faqs#opendns) or has been making too
many requests to SURBL, and is now either receiving "yes it's listed"
for any request, or is generating that response for some reason.

As a local workaround (since your domain doesn't seem to be listed
currently), I suggest adding "uridnsbl_skip_domain websiterepairguy.com"
to your SpamAssassin config - that will skip doing URI blacklist lookups
altogether on your domain.
