Issue/Introduction

 

Resolution

If you enable MatchExactURL parameter, only the exact matching URLs found in the definitions will be blocked and not the entire domain. Currently, the definitions contain only up to twenty bad URLs per domain. If the domain has more URLs, some URLs might not be part of the definitions and those URLs will be allowed.

Therefore, it is recommended not to enable the MatchExactURL parameter.
