I'm hoping that someone has an idea that can help us.  We're currently blocking the domain youtube.com<http://youtube.com> at our school.  While we acknowledge that there is a great deal of good material there, it also has way too much material that has been deemed inappropriate for our school environment.

That being said, the folks at YouTube have created a whole pile of school appropriate content and placed it in their YouTube Teachers area.  Unfortunately they just placed it in a subdomain of the original YouTube domain.  (youtube.com/teachers<http://youtube.com/teachers>)

As far as I know, MECguard is unable to unblock subdomains.  This is unfortunate.  Is there any way to work around this limitation?  Anyone have ideas?  I'd love to hear them.
