Banned Word Errors

Hi

 

I work in a school and for many students we keep getting "Attention the page has been blocked because it contains a banned word" message, on Google searches when searching things like "speed light photography" or anything that's not bad!

 

Have done some investigation but can't see why it's blocking.

 

Any help would be great!

 

Thanks

Jenny

    What FortiOS version are you running? Does this error come from Web Protection?
