Deny List
To allow users access to all Web sites except for those you choose to
block, choose Deny List in the URL Filter Type drop-down box
Figure 54 URL Filter Screen showing Deny List
To filter a specific site, enter the URL for that site. For example, to stop
your users from browsing a site called www.badsite.com, enter
www.badsite.com or badsite.com in one of the fields.
If badsite.com has multiple sub-domains, such as this.badsite.com and
that.badsite.com then you can either:
Block them individually by entering this.badsite.com in one field
and that.badsite.com in another.
or
Block them by entering the keyword badsite.com into one of the
fields. This will block all URLs containing the string badsite.com. As
well as blocking this.badsite.com and that.badsite.com,
the keyword badsite.com would block searches that mentioned
badsite.com in their domain name, for example
www.notabadsite.com.
To filter a generic keyword enter it into one of the fields. You should
exercise caution when choosing a keyword as many keywords are
(Figure 54).
