Unblock the blocked website

Overview

Some of the websites are blocked due to the entries created in the SafeSquid configuration. We don't know which security filter is the reason for blocking. We need to identify the filter and based on that create the new entry to allow the blocked website or you can modify the existing entry. 

Prerequisites

You must know the different types of security filters available in SafeSquid.
