Whats with leapfile being blocked?

Increasingly we have been getting requests to unblock something called leapfile.  Here is an example messgage they get:
Blocked site:     something.leapfile.net
Blocked Category:     Business and Industry
User:          DOMAIN\user@Windows
User Group:     BLOCK_AVC-11-Executive_Management-Authenticated_Users-DefaultGroup-NONE-NONE-NONE
Reauth_URL:     -
Base64Decode error '800a0001'
Bad Base64 string.
/ironport/blocked.asp, line 78
Seems like you have to allow this in 3 places?  Thats a bit much isn't it?  You have to add:
.leapfile.com
.leapfile.net
to the URL allowed category where the user is mapping to.
Then you have to drill down in the applications block/warn/monitor area for the policy they are mapped to and expand it and change leapfile from block to monitor there.
Whats with all of these layers and why all of a suddon are there so many requests for this leapfile site?  I went to their corporate site and it sounds legitimate, so if it is legitimate why is it being blocked by default.

Good idea.  I don't remember ever hearing about leapfile before but after some research it seems to be a good secure way for people to transfer files, especially if it has accounting or auditing data or any other sensitive information.  I think that's what confused me at first because simply adding the URL's did not allow the site to load.
When you bolded AVC from my block message and stated "AVC=Application Visibility and Control" that also helps me understand and better decode a blocked site message.
Its nice that the aplications get updated automatically though, but I do love your feature request.
Take care,
Keith

  • Has anyone had problems with iCloud being blocked by corporate web security?

    Has anyone else encountered problems with iCloud being blocked by the web-security on company computers?   I never had any problems with me.com, but now it appears I will be unable to check my mail via any computer at work. 
    Since iCloud is a portal for high-volume image and file sharing, I can understand why the site would be blocked, but it's very frustrating that this possibility would not have been anticipated, and an alternate web-mail site been set up.  Otherwise many me.com subscribers may be left unable to use the iCloud web-mail portal via computers at work or at internet cafes that may block access to potentially risky websites.
    Has anyone figured out a back door to this problem? 

    I dont beleive its an iOS 5 Issue - i think its hardware...
    Simply because i have been running iOS 5 beta's since june and there were no issues with my iPhone 4.
    When i installed the GM on my iphone 4 (which is the same build as the public release) there were no issues with charging in my vehicle.
    Now, charging my iPhone 4S in my car is practically impossible.
    when i plug mine in, it will display the "Plugged" symbol on the battery display but not actually charge. the battery will still decrease.
    then it will randomly "disconnect" and not register that it is plugged in. then appear to be plugged in, then not, then plugged in, then not.
    This will repeat over and over again without actually charging and the charger being in the socket throughout.
    however yesterday i left it plugged in and my battery was 9% and after the strange plugged-in behaviour i noticed it was charging normally after about 20 mins in the car.
    But when i did the same journey time today, the battery wouldnt register at all.... charging has only been successful ONCE since 14th October on the iPhone 4s
    No idea whats up with it...
    anybody else?

  • Problem with Safari being blocked by ***.a2ztech.us

    Safari is blocked, getting msg:

    Do not know how to get it back working.

    The only infection you have is the scam site trying to fleece you out of hundreds of dollars to fix a non-existent problem.
    Press Command+Option+Esc
    Highlight Safari and choose Force Quit. Close the box.
    Hold down the Shift key and relaunch Safari. That tells it not to reload any pages from the last session.

  • Do cases/covers for iPad mini 1 fit iPad mini 2 with it being 2mm thicker in depth?

    Hi
    Just wondering do cases/covers for iPad mini 1 fit iPad mini 2? Only some people say they do, some say they don't what with it being 2mm thicker in depth &amp; having an extra microphone?
    Thanks in advance

    To be sure stop by the Apple Store, tell them you're thinking about getting a mini and you'd like to see if it would fit  in your case. Don't try it without first asking.

  • I am being blocked from my "favorites"on my iPad 2 with the following....... You are not authorized to open this file. What do I need to do

    I'm being blocked from my favorites on my iPad 2 with the following........... You are not authorized to open this file. What do I do?

    I'm not sure whether you have tried the "usual" things:
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Command+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    * "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    * Firefox menu > Preferences > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * classic Tools menu > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
    In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
    After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
    Any difference?

    This is iweb development where after publishing, things look different in IE than other browsers. U r correct that this is due to IE software but is iWeb related. After all, one uses iweb not to just publish in Safari but for all browsers.
    Which means that you are only considering half of the problem, but that's your choice.

  • What is the best way to filter an IP from being blocked?

    What is the best way to filter an IP from being blocked by a false positive? Event Action Filter?

    I'll assume you really mean "blocked" as opposed to "denied". You can either create an event action filter and subtract the blocked action, or you can add the address to the "never block" addresses.

  • I just got an IPAD2 on Saturday.  With the Mac, I could always tell when programs were open/running by going to the menu bar.  How can I tell what programs are running in the background.  I am struggling with not being able to go to a menu bar at the top

    You can see which apps are open and/or recently used by double-clicking the home button to bring up the taskbar at the bottom of the screen (not all apps that appear there are active) - you can then close apps on it by pressing and holding one of them for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar. If you have an app 'open' on-screen then it won't appear on the taskbar, you will need to go back to the homescreen first, and it should then show when you next open the taskbar.
    If you haven't already got a copy then you can download the iPad manual from here : http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad

  • What tools are being used with WLS 5.1?

    I have been experimenting with WLS 5.1 and it is clear that there are many
    steps in developing, testing, and deploying EJBs. What tools are being
    used? How do IBM's Visual Age, JBuilder 4, and Visual Cafe EE stack up?
    Are there any tools for developing and debugging JSPs?

    Hi folks,
    about the "IBM VisualAge 3.02 (Integration Kit)" that Nirav mentions below...
    Does this integration kit work with Visual Age 3.5? If not, do you have any tool recommendations for VA3.5 users who are developing apps for WebLogic5.1?
    Thanks,

    Mike,
    The level of integration between WLS and the tools is as follows (with
    VisualCafe being the most integrated) --
    1. VisualCafe Enterprise (or the WebGain Studio suite)
    http://www.webgain.com/Products/index.htm
    2. JBuilder 4 http://www.inprise.com/jbuilder/
    3. IBM VisualAge 3.02 (Integration Kit beta up on BEA website)
    http://commerce.beasys.com/downloads/weblogic_server.jsp#wlstools
    All the integration's support development, local debugging, and local
    deployment, but VisualCafe has wizards and like which generate code for the
    J2EE specs that WLS supports.
    I have read that JBuilder 4 supports JSP debugging but have not tried it yet.

  • I'm trying to download Adobe Flash Player, but the yellow bar with the 'Allow' button doesn't come up, so the programme is being blocked, giving me no ability to unblock it.

    A bar is supposed to come up, when I'm trying to download Adobe Flash Player. The bar is supposed to have an option to 'Allow' the download. The programme is being blocked and is not downloading, but the bar doesn't come up, so I'm unable to enable its download.

    The instructions you are referring to are out of date and not the ideal way to install / update Flash.
    Instead:
    # Download (save to your desktop) http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/uninstall_flash_player.exe
    # Download http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
    # Close Firefox
    # Run uninstall_flash_player.exe, click through to uninstall any old versions of Flash
    # Run install_flash_player.exe to install Flash.

  • Log-in pages are being blocked.

    <blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>
    Please continue here: [[/questions/928639]]</blockquote>
    All the log-in pages to my regularly visited websites are being blocked. Saved sites that have stored log-in info or sites where I have accounts that I need to sign-in to access all get the same error - "This Connection is Untrusted. You have asked Firefox to connect securely to (insert website url here), but we can't confirm that your connection is secure. Blah, blah, blah."
    Anyone know what's causing this and how to fix it?? I have decent anti-virus software and I did a complete scan, came up clean.

    *Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
    *Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
    *Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
    *Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
    If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
    There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and <u>security software</u> (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.

  • HT1349 I have purchased a new PC and am being blocked from accessing my itunes account why ???

    I have purchased a new PC and am being blocked from accessing my itunes account why???

    You are being blocked how ?
    If you mean that your library isn't showing then it won't automatically appear on it. You can authorise your iTunes account on it via the Store > Authorise This Computer menu option (with iTunes 11 pressing Alt-S should get the Store menu to appear). You will then need to either download your content onto it (what you can re-download will show under Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage), or copy if from your old computer or your backup.
    If you are referring to something else ... ?

  • ITunes proxy authorisation window does not appear (and account is being blocked randomly)

    Many users have iTunes installed on their PC. iTunes requires proxy authorization to connect to internet. Appropriate popup window appears when opening iTunes and trying to open some internet-based page there. Entering current AD account credentials helps to connect. There is also a checkmark there allowinf to save credentials for further use (and do not show this window anymore). When AD password is changed - this popup window does not appear again and user's account is being blocked (because iTunes tries to connect proxy with old credentials). The question is: is it possible to reset proxy settings, stored somewhere inside iTunes somehow? Just to return proxy authorization window back. Did you have such an experience? If you caould share any knowledge - it would be great.

    What happens if you go to iTunes > File > Devices, do you get the option to Sync iPhone?
    You could try a reinstall of iTunes. OS X Yosemite: Reinstall apps that came with your Mac
