Hello,

It would appear that the site is pulling data from a site that you still need to block.

To check this and there are generally three methods you can use to figure out which domains are being referenced when loading a website.

1) Use the Web Developers Console option in Firefox (Tools -> Web Developer -> Web Console) and load the site on a computer that is not using OpenDNS, as it will list all of the domains referenced when a particular webpage loads.

2) Another method of figuring out which domains may be blocked on your network is by using Chrome Developer Tools.
Select the ⋮ menu at the top-right of your browser window, then select Tools -> Developer tools.
Right-click on any page element and select Inspect element.
On Windows and Linux, press Control - Shift - I keys to open Developer Tools
Control - Shift - J to open Developer Tools and bring focus to the Console.
Control - Shift - C to toggle Inspect Element mode.

On Mac, press ⌥⌘I (Command - Option - I) keys to open Developer Tools
⌥⌘J (Command - Option - J) to open Developer Tools and bring focus to the Console.
^⌘C (Control - Option - C) to toggle Inspect Element mode.

3) The site ***www.webpagetest.org*** also supplies this data and many people find this tool the easiest tool to use.

If you have any questions I would suggest that you create a support request so we can troubleshoot this problem thoroughly.

Did you run one of the three tests and find a domain or domains not in the list we provided?
