Can't offer any advice on the Firebox, but a decent proxy should block
by category irrespective of Google caching.  Ours certainly does (we use
a cloud service for web filtering).

Subject: Firewall hole - pardon the pun



I was doing a google search for something and noticed the Cached link,
which I see all the time, but this time I wondered if blocked content
could get thru my firewall by viewing Cashed content.  I tried a porn
site (that I only heard about) and "Whoa, hold the phone"!  While the
regular link to the website was blocked by my firewall, the Cached site
looked just like the (unblocked) website.  Moving images and the whole
nine yards.  Of course the links from the Cached site were blocked, but
there was lots of content just on that page.

I tried some other sites and the images were blocked on those.  I'm sure
there are more, but only one site I found behaved this way.

Is there something I can do or this a limitation of my firewall?  I have
a WatchGuard Firebox 700.

 

Thanks,

Paul
