How is your own Sidewinder DNS resolution?

Can you do lookups on your own hostname in each
burb?

How about reverse DNS for every one of the ips on your
Sidewinder.

----------------

Are you using the HTTP proxy in transparent or non transparent mode

----------------

Have you tried different browsers?

---------------

What happens if you turn the app defense in the rule down to the bottom?
