I have a website http://certifiedcc.com
On it, there's a link to a different site that I use to connect with clients: https://cccoffice.com/connect
When I click on that link, ABE flips out and blocks me. There's nothing the least bit shady about any of that, no weird scripting, no nothing. It's just a link. What's ABE's problem?

Re: Why is ABE busting my balls?
Well, for starters, it redirects to port 8040, instead of the standard HTTPS port 443. Have you added any ABE rules beyond the default?
Secondly, if you're behind a corporate proxy, then it might well refuse to connect to that non-standard port, and in doing so, it might redirect you to an error page on the proxy - which would be a local address, and so ABE will intervene.

Re: Why is ABE busting my balls?
Click on the link you posted here, does ABE block that too?
DNS lookup of affected domain:
I don't see why that'd be LOCAL.
Redirects are all to the same site, so that's probably not it, unless there's JS based redirects through other site(s)? (I didn't try allow scripts.)
If this is happening *not* behind a corporate proxy: please check the Browser Console (Ctrl-Shift-J) when this happens and post here any messages related to NoScript.
(related messages usually start with either "[NoScript" or "[ABE]"; if you don't know what's related, turn off CSS warnings and post everything else you see)
If you *might* be (or are) behind a corporate proxy or some such thing, try installing NoRedirect & configure it to block all redirects (Regex: .*, check only "Source") and see what redirects? Also see if your DNS lookup matches mine?

Re: Why is ABE busting my balls?
Aha, found it. The ABE issue only comes up when I'm inside the network with the second server, so it's correctly perceiving the second URL as an attempt to go to a local address and that's when it's blocking me. That at least won't be an issue when dealing with workers outside the office, and can be corrected on the office workstations. Thanks for the help!

Re: [RESOLVED] Why is ABE busting my balls?
Are you familiar enough with ABE to be confident correcting it? Feel free to ask for help writing rules.
