However, it appears that even if the Web Content is set for unrestricted, if you simply enable Parental Controls, then managed users may be denied access to websites. This has caused problems doing research on LexisNexis such that a search wouldn't return any results & simply reset to the search page.

This is so bad that I've had to turn off Parental Controls, which makes me very cranky...
