Have you already chosen the appropriate categories in the Web Filtering Profile? If there are additional sites that need to be blocked you could use the Rating Overrides as well.

hello and thank you for your answer i did chose the appropriate category in the web filtering profile . if i use the rating overrides will it block all the site content or just the video\audio in it ?

Web filtering block access to server hosting video - sometimes not to all site - i.e. if source of video content is different that site where is embeded. To block only video content (stream) you should use application control.

(path is Policy --> Policy --> Policy) When you create (or edit existing) firewall policy for all users i.e. : from LAN to WAN1 And remember if any other policy exist and let users to use Internet without control - all depends on order (from up to down - first rule that fits - is the only that is working !).

;-) Try to use diffrent browser or add FG to trusted sites or enable javascript/cookies etc. I use IE9 and it' s OK. In Firefox it is well too. Most problems are on chrome !!! Every FG GUI just has this options.
