Stop! This website is blocked

I just installed a new XGS 2100 running SFOS 19.5.1 MR-1-Build278.  When users search Google and click on a link via google they receive an error: Stop! This website is blocked. The administrator of this network has restricted access to sites categorized as Advertisements.  The error will also show the category as online shopping or Entertainment as well. I have read a few other post about this on the community but the fixes do not work. If I disable Unproductive Browsing it fixes the issue but I want to leave this feature on. Has anyone fixed this error on recent builds?  Thanks.

  • It may not be an error but my previous version of Sophos 19.01 did not have this issue.  I find this configuration is impossible to figure out.  As an example I search for "ticketmaster" on Google.com.  First link comes up as Ticket Master of course.  I click on that at it's blocked based on advertisements.  I have advertisements allowed but it still does not go through.  How is one supposed to find where this is being blocked?

  • OK, thank you guys for the help and pointing me in the right direction.  I did not notice earlier that Not Suitable for office and Not Suitable for School had the same overlapping categories in them.  I removed them from work one but not the school one.  After removing the categories from both the websites worked properly.  Thanks.
