      Greetings, i've set up squid with HTTP/HTTPS inspection via CA certs.  Pretty standard setup.  All works as expected.

      The only issue is when I go to speedtest.net I get the error saying that I have an AdBlocker that needs to be configured (see attached image).  This only happens if I try to use their HTML5 test.  If I use the "Legacy" Adobe Flash test, it works just fine.

      /var/squid/logs/access_log shows the following denials:

      I've tried adding these domains into the whitelist under ACLs, but that hasn't changed anything.

      Anything else I can try?

      Thanks for any suggestions!

        Do you have pfBlockerNG installed also?

            @JamesVA:

            I do, but it's not enabled.

            The DNSBL portion also?

            I run squid also with MITM Non-Transparent and Certificates with proxy configured in Edge browser and if I disable pfBlocker and
            the DNSBL portion I can run the HTML5 speed test's.

            On the Cert's tab in Squid I run Intermediate instead of Modern and also Do not verify remote Certificate's due
            to a problem's with my wife's work-site.
