Question:

When I go to an HTTPS (secure) site, I get a page that says "the page cannot be displayed" instead of the "Access Denied" page I normally see.

When you go to an “https” version of a URL that’s blocked, you’ll always see “the page cannot be displayed” instead of an “Access Denied” page. Due to the nature of compressed/encrypted traffic, the R3000 will block the request, but it cannot send the usual block page.
