Web Filtering overrides Firewall block and allows traffic

DesertJake
Hello,
I am trying to setup a Firewall rule to block a host, certain hours of the day. 

I setup the rule and it does work but only if Web Filtering is Disabled. 

It seems that Web Filtering overrides the Firewall rules. I can see the blocked packets in the Live Firewall log but he sites still load if Web Filtering is enabled.

I have no exceptions in the Web Filter and I am using transparent mode. 

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

    In the Filter Assignment, leave 'Users/Groups' empty.  Watch the Web Filtering Live Log to confirm that the Profile and the Assignment are being selected for the traffic.

    Cheers - Bob
