That seems to be just to add the words that you want to look for in the content. It doesn' t have a place to put a domain name. I went to Fortiguard- web filter and it seems to have a place where I can put a domain or URL but it says something about an expiration date.

Sorry, try looking under URL filter instead. Here you can specify a URL and set it to block allow or exempt. I am not really sure what the difference between allow and exempt are, but I' m sure its on teh help somewhere

If what you want to do is allow a website that is blocked by one of the Fortiguard categories that you want to block do this: Under Webfilter / FortiGuard - Webfilter / Local Categories create 2 categories 1) Blacklisted Websites 2) Whitelisted Websites Then go to Local ratings and click " Creat New" ... enter the domain you want to allow or block and assign it to the new Local categories that you created. Lastly, go to the protection profile that you have assigned to this internet traffic and set your newly created categories to Block or Allow. Hope this helps.
