Could you open a command prompt and enter

Code: Select all

ping finmarket.ru
to check if it actually resolves to an IP outside your LAN?

It is certainly resolving:

finmarket.ru [213.134.198.50]

Forgot to mention that the news are opening OK when I am disabling ABE.

Mmm, that's very strange and looking like a real bug.
Investigating, thanks.

Yes, there's a bug, but it's not ABE's, it's by finmarket.ru network administrators:

Code: Select all

dig finmarket.ru

; <<>> DiG <<>> finmarket.ru

;; QUESTION SECTION:
;finmarket.ru.                  IN      A

;; ANSWER SECTION:
finmarket.ru.           600     IN      A       213.134.198.50
finmarket.ru.           600     IN      A       172.16.2.102
172.16.2.102 is a private network address, reserved for LANs, so ABE is correct in matching the LOCAL rule.
Having put it in a public DNS record is the error causing this problem, and it should be fixed by finamrket.ru's network administrators.
You can work around by putting a

Code: Select all

213.134.198.50 finmarket.ru
line in your hosts file.
