We've just started having a problem accessing our Ebscohost databases with
Public Web Browser. We use a white list to prevent people from using the
general Internet on such computers, and until very recently it has worked fine.
Today, however, PWB is not allowing access to Ebsco databases because it says
they are not a permitted site. Something at Ebscohost is apparently trying to
load a page that we don't have in our white list. I called the company and they
say that they haven't changed a thing lately, but our computers use Deep Freeze
so we haven't changed a thing either. Is anyone else who uses PWB seeing this
problem accessing Ebscohost?
If I could find a way to get a list of every page that is trying to load when
we go to that site I could probably figure it out for myself. Does anyone know
of a utility that will do this?
