[Resolved] Asus Router Protection Being Blocked

Post by marklang »

I have a new Asus RT-AC88U router that has built in protection from Trend Micro for malicious website detection and several other features. This is on many higher end Asus routers. The problem I just ran into is that,when it detects a malicious link, it replaces the fetched IP in Firefox with a local page that displays a warning message. NoScript sees this as bad behavior (as it should normally). The message I get is:

Code: Select all

Request {GET http://192.168.1.1/blocking.asp?cat_id=79 <<< http://mirror2.internetdownloadmanager.com/idman626build7.exe?b=1&filename=idman626build7.exe - 6} filtered by ABE: <LOCAL> Deny
Obviously, normally such a substitution would be a problem, but I want to allow it in this case. I am having trouble understanding the language that is used to set up rules to allow this. Based on some things in the forum, I tried adding these statements at the top of the SYSTEM rules on the ABE page

Site 192.168.1.1
Accept from SELF+

That did not fix the problem. I am not really sure. If someone could suggest the exact language, that would be appreciated. Thanks.

Thank you so much, Barbaz. I would have never figured that out. It works fine. I will also post this on the Asus forum for others to find.
