Adam reports the following:

Visiting http://socialsoftware.weblogsinc.com/2006/05/18/they-might-be-giants-offer-nsa-ringtone/ I found myself in this interesting state [see attachment].

Note that aol.com appears to be both allowed and denied, as does revsci.net

I can't repeat this, but I don't doubt there's a bug somewhere as there have been similar bugs in the past.

For now, this bug will probably wait for more reports and hopefully repeatability before it can be fixed.

Refer to the attached image, 'Ticket #88a.png', when I followed the aforementioned URI.

Weird that both aol.com and revsci.net appear as both blocked and allowed in 'rp-confused-menu.gif'. :wacko:

I guess it's situations like that when you wished you had "Show Request Log" running, as well as an HTTP sniffer running too, thereby identifying whether aol.com / revsci.net were being blocked or allowed.

Appears to be duplicate of #37

Still happens. Looking forward to #192, which should either fix this directly or consolidate the code sufficiently such that it can be fixed readily.

The missing attachments in this bug report makes it hard to investigate, and the suggested test page does not exist anymore. It was apparently, already considered unreproducible at the time. Maybe this only affects 0.5. Without more info it's hard to tell.

I will now close this issue, please report back if it happens again.
