Blocked Content Types and login.yahoo.com - 13.Feb.2008 1:13:01 PM

By setting "Content Types" to "Selected Content Types" and allowing all except video and audio, ISA blocks login.yahoo.com. Even if all the content types are checked it still blocks it. Only by checking "All Content Types" will ISA allow access.

I don't know if blocking audio/video via content types affects other sites as well, but login.yahoo.com is a fairly mainstream webmail portal, and I'm unclear why trying to block those content types would also block access to this site.

Any ideas or comments?

r u using the ALL Outbound Protocols inside your rule ??

you can use this rule for HTTP Protocols.

If you removed the HTTPS protocol from this rule , it will not block such sites.

I had a "Web Access" rule setup for HTTP/HTTPS. I was applying the "Content Types" selection to all except audio/video.

I just changed to rule so that it's just HTTP and I get the same results, that if I select all except audio/video, Yahoo is nogo.
