Watchguard blocking websites

I have a Watchguard firebox 700. In an attempt to allow users to access OWA, I setup http proxy to the server in the firewall. It workd fine, however, users could no longer visit some harmless, work related sites, or even download pdf files. They get a watchguard error message, so I know that it is the culprit. The funny thing is, I removed the http proxy and rebooted the firewall, but the restrictions are still there. Anything to do with Java, active x, pdf, is all blocked. I have searched all through the watchguard and cannot find where any rstrictions could be.
Any ideas?
Thanks

I deleted the http proxy, but it still blocks some content. For example, if I click on a pdf download from HP, it gives me the page cannot be displayed. If I right click I can do a "save link as". Also, it will block java applets, such as link speed tests.
It has been acting goofy since I enanbled the http proxy.
