Strange behavior on sites like Engadget
While browsing certain sites like http://www.engadget.com, bfilter seems to prevent me from scrolling thru pictures.
For example, http://www.engadget.com/photos/iphone-4g-proof/#2904450

if i go to LAN setting and disable proxy server, then i am able to scroll to the images. Simply checking the Bypass or creating a whitelist for engadget wont work. I'm using Win7 64bit. Almost everything else works great!

Can someone advise why this happens?

Thanks

RE: Strange behavior on sites like Engadget
First I want to make it very clear that I know nothing about the BFilter product.

When your browser fetches a page, the HTML often contains references to content from other sites and your browser then tries to fetch those parts. Below is the things that a browser needs to fetch to satisfy that one page you requested. Whitelisting where you thought the content was coming from doesn't whitelist all the others that you didn't know about.

Code:

Images, Javascript, and stylesheets look pretty normal to me.
