12.3 Global rules for Web elements

In WinRoute you can also block certain features contained in HTML pages. Typical undesirable

items are ActiveX objects (they might enable starting of applications on client hosts) and pop-

up windows (automatically opened browser windows, usually used for advert purposes).

To define content global filtering rules go to the Content Rules tab in the Configuration →
Content Filtering → HTTP Policy section. Special settings for individual pages can be defined
in URL Rules section (refer to chapter

12.2

).

Settings on the WWW content scanning options tab are applied to traffic of hosts where users

are not authenticated. Special settings are used for users connected through the firewall.

Each authenticated user can customize filtering rules at the user preferences page (see chap-

ter

11.4

). However, users that are not allowed to override WWW content rules (refer to chap-

ter

15.1

) cannot permit HTML features that are denied globally.
