Due to potential abuse, we have blocked outbound port 80 on all servers in order to prevent exploited scripts/applications to include attacks/spamming scripts from external sites.
If your applications/scripts need to connect to external sites to includes/fetch files from external sites, please inform us the remote IP addresses that your application needs to connect to so that we can whitelist it in firewall.
The implementation only affects apache user aka nobody. If your account uses its account cgi script or run in crontab to execute a script under your own username to fetch files or content from external sites, it's not blocked.
Thanks for your attention.
