I use my FVS318 to block pages that are notorious for installing
malware and logging activity. It used to block these like a champ but
is now letting through pages that were once blocked.

Here's what I have configured on the 'Blocked Sites' page:
- "Turn Keyword Blocking On" is CHECKED
- "Block Sites Containing These Keywords Or Domain Names" has lots of
sites blocked (actually as many as it will hold so I can't add any
more)
- "Allow Trusted IP Address To Visit Blocked Sites" is NOT checked

Most of the sites I've blocked are ad-ware related.

Any idea why the blocking no longer works even though the list of
blocked sites is still intact?

Thanks.

Hey, either do a hard rest on the router or re-flash it and see what
happens.
