This is not a question, it's an observation. When you tick the block movies option, itunes gives you a certificate error when you try to access the itunes store.

  Hi africantech,

  Does this certificate error only happen when using a specific browser? If possible, would you be able to take a screenshot of the error message and respond to the thread with it.

  itunes.apple.com and itunes.com are categorized in movies since you can purchase/watch movies with iTunes.  If you would like to use these domains and have Movies blocked you can add both of these domains to your Never Block list, this will also remove the certificate error.

  Thanks and appreciated. I will try the above - I had only added itunes.com which did not resolve the problem.

  @ Chris, the certificate error occured in the itunes app itself - not in a browser.

  Regards

  I'm seeing this same problem.  I've seen it in iTunes and I've seen it in the Netflix add on for Windows Media Center.  As soon as I change DNS servers from OpenDNS to my ISPs the cert error goes away.  Very strange...

  No, not strange.  You either have domains blocked needed to use iTunes, find them at https://dashboard.opendns.com/stats/all/blockeddomains, or OpenDNS cannot resolve a certain domain referenced by an iTunes web page.
