      Hello,

      I'm using pfSense 2.3.1. In the Netherlands there is a site www.onlineluisteren.nl to listen to online radio. The 'play' button on sender NPO 1 has the URL:  onlineluisteren.nl/assets/components/stations/images/thumbs/hardcore-radio.png

      This last part of the URL, hardcore-radio, is the problem: The URL is blocked by blacklist category PORN. I added the following lines in the whitelist of target categories:
      domain list: onlineluisteren.nl
      url list: the above url
      regular expression: hardcore-radio

      There is one groups ACL, named basis_ACL, where i blocked PORN. The whitelist is allowed. In the common ACL the category PORN is also blocked.

      When I try to play the music on this sender and click the play button, nothing happens, but the squidguard proxy site log tells me the URL is blocked by basis_ACL, category PORN.

      So it seems that the whitelist doesn't work on this particulair URL. Does someone see what i can be doing wrong, or is there a problem with the order of the standard blacklist vs the added whitelist in target categories (wich is on top)?

      Thanks for your reaction(s) in advance.

      Kind regards, sourcefinder.

        This topic is solved: not squidguard, but squid was blocking this website; as a matter effect, Clamav antivirus did. I had to check 'exclude Audio/Video streams' and then disable and enable Clamav. In the log of squidguard this link is still marked as blocked, but now as default/blk_blacklists/PORN. Beats me, but fact is that CLAMAV antivirus stops websites with a risk on problems. Yhis can conflict with squidguard, of course.

        Greetings, sourcefinder.

          More clearance: it was the 'play´  button on the website (hardcore-radio.png) that was blocked by clamav and showed as blocked by squidguard!?
