Hi All,

I have just installed a fresh install of Chromium on a Laptop, I have managed to connect to WIFI on it however it will not let me login and suggests I use guest access, I go onto guest access load up the browser and I get "Web Page Blocked, your system administrator has blocked access to this webpage, please check policy" I have not added any policy to the device, and it dose not show any active policy,.

Any one else have this issue?

Where are the policy located in the root as I can seem to find them from what the documentation says.

Thanks in advanced

are you using the Chrome or Chromium browser ?  are you running Windows or Chrome OS or Linux (e.g. Ubuntu) ?

please post a screenshot.  most likely this has nothing to do with Chrome or Chrome OS and is a network level feature, or OS (unrelated to Chrome OS).

Chrome allows domain administrators to configure policies for the browser. These policies can configure or restrict the browser (e.g. configure the network proxies, install extensions, and also block some sites).

You'll get policy management in two cases:

 1) if you signed-in with an account that your company/school/administrator gave you

 2) if the machine you're using is managed by your company/school/administrator

You can inspect these policies at chrome://policy; "URLBlacklist" is the policy that restricts access to sites. If you believe you shouldn't get any of these restrictions on your laptop then this could be either malware or a (very serious) bug in Chrome.

Can you answer these questions to help us diagnose your problem:

- what is the operating system version? (Windows, Mac, ChromeOS?)

- are you signed in to Chrome? If so, are you using a gmail account or an account managed by some domain?

- is this a company/school laptop?

This sounds a lot like you're running into a new feature we're building, which is called forced re-enrollment. What it does is check in with a Google-hosted server during first device setup to see whether your device should be associated with a Google Apps domain. Did you have network connectivity to Google on first boot?

Where did you obtain the image you're running?

For good measure, I'll make a code change to only enable forced re-enrollment on official Google builds.

And I've filed a bug to track this improvement: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=358585

Yes it did, straight from the git. 

It decided to allow me on the internet after a couple of reboot.
