Change Country Blocking From Block To Warn?

ArticediTor

I'm a home user and block most countries. Once or twice a day I may stumble on a site while searching around and decide to override the Country Blocking settings. I would prefer to be presented with a Web Filter style Warn page that has a Proceed button instead of needing to login each time. Is it possible to get this behavior using command line changes or some other way? Again I'm a home user so I don't need to worry about a warranty or support contract -- I'm willing to fiddle around. Thanks.

    Because nearly every major website has tentacles to servers you never see, you should review your logs to see whether something important is being blocked behind the scenes.    If a website has unexplained odd behavior, these hidden links may be a reasin why.  It may also ratify your resolve to block aggressively.

    My worst experience was when an employee went to a church website to check funeral directions.  It was infected and tried to invoke hidden content from Ukraime.  Fortunately, the UTM APT logic fired, and the attack was blocked.   I worked with the church to make them aware of the infection.
