So ok...using regex101.com it looks like org still matches...should I just try and test using sec or does regex101.com mirror what sec would do? Example:
(?<!\.net|\.org)\S+\.php\?id=[0-9A-Za-z]{8} bleh://something[.]org/something/something.php?id=sj98sdf7s978sdf and this still matches, again, according to regex101. Might have to just give it a test. Thanks again...VERY helpful! James On 2017-03-17 10:02, Todd M.
