@sleslie UVic uses a number of security services that maintain dynamic lists of malicious or harmful content (viruses, malware, etc). Occasionally valid sites are blocked by these services so the best course of action is always to reach out to the Help Desk to allow them to investigate.

@sleslie Hi Scott, if you could reach out to the Computer Help Desk at [email protected] or 250-721-7687 then they can collect some additional details and investigate the issue.
