Google Images Problem

[Bezwick]

Hi everyone,

 

I have an odd problem that I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction towards.

 

Whenever a student does a search in google images it shows about the first 15-20 thumbnails then all the rest are broken. However if you click on the broken thumbnail it takes you to the site. It happens on IE, Firefox & Chrome but only for students not for staff.

We have recently had a Smoothwall firewall/content filter installed and it is since then, however I have checked every setting different on the staff logins compared to the students and none seam to be causing it.

 

Any ideas on where I should be looking?

 

Thanks

Ah I have a little progress on this, it looks like our students are not being detected as students by Smoothwall and they are being treated as "Default Users".

 

I have checked the Directory Group mappings and they are mapped to the correct AD groups.

 

The student web filter policy sis set above the default users policy.

 

So any ideas why that it isn't applying?

 

Thanks
