SARE has been playing around with URI rules lately, and when we need to test for something in the host/domain area, we use something like: > uri rule_name m'(?:https?://)?[^/]*testgoeshere' In other words, the test must precede any/all slashes except for those that might be within http:// When we need to test for something after the host/domain area, we reverse that, like: > uri rule_name m'(?:https?://)?.+/testgoeshere' In other words, the test must follow a slash. The method can be improved upon, but it helps avoid what I think are the false hits you're dealing with. Bob Menschel
