How to block movies and whitelist Netflix?
I have movies category blocked. I have whitelisted the following. However, Netflix continues to be blocked. What am I doing wrong? How can I block movies category but allow Netflix to be unblocked?

I did whitelist the domains that were being blocked and Netflix continued to be blocked. The domain that was blocked in the stats was nflxvideo.net. I added it to “never block”. However Netflix still was blocked. The funny thing about it is this: When I unblocked movies category which allowed Netflix to work, nflxvideo.net never appeared in the “everything” stats. But when I block movies category which makes Netflix not work nflxvideo.net is shown as blocked a million times!

Ok I finally got it working!! I have movies category blocked but Netflix whitelisted and it works as expected. For some reason that I don't know my ISP suddenly assigned me a different address. When that happened I decided to start everything in Open DNS from scratch. I took your advice and blocked movies first. Then I took note of which domains were being blocked and whitelisted them. Like magic it worked this time.
