Setting the full access password expiration at, for example, 15 minutes,

idle for 15 minutes. This ensures that only the individuals chosen to use the
full access password will be able to browse otherwise blocked sites.

WebBlocker categories
WebBlocker relies on a URL database built and maintained by
SurfControl. The Firebox automatically and regularly downloads a
current version of the WebBlocker database from the WatchGuard
Web site to your log host. The Firebox then copies the new version
into memory. This process ensures the most up-to-date Web
filtering and blocking capabilities.
SurfControl constantly searches the Internet to update the list of
blocked sites. The WebBlocker database contains the following 14
categories.
