Thanks for the tip. &nbsp;Auto-block source was checked. &nbsp;I unchecked it and I'll monitor the blocked sites list to see if that took care of the problem. &nbsp;Auto block under HTTP or HTTPS wasn't checked so I'm thinking we should be good.<br />
Thanks for your help, I'll accept as solution after testing.

I have a watchguard x700 that is constantly blocking sites (IPs) that should be allowed through due to a policy. &nbsp;We use OWA and we have a policy setup to allow any HTTPS traffic through to certain IP addresses...one of them being the Exchange server. &nbsp;Lately the x700 has just been block happy and blocking just about everything. &nbsp;Once I reboot the x700 it clears our the blocked sites list and users are able to connect for a short time. Then few hours later, sometimes days, their IP will be added to the blocked sites list again and they cannot connect. &nbsp;Anyone run into this before and if so can you help...its extremely annoying.
