What do you have on beta.fanhost.com that my firewall programme doesn't like?

Every time on fireFox when I go to forums.fanhost.com, that address accesses beta and my firewall gives off an alert.

Why?

Nothing interesting. It's just our development server. I checked the code on the forum and it looks like the only thing referencing beta was an image in the css stylesheet. What was the error message?

Anyway, I've changed it to point to www instead of beta since there is no need for it to pull the image from the development server.

The alert message was only notifying me that forums.fanhost.com was attempting to pull info from beta.forums.com, this was the advert protector portion of my firewall. Perhaps it was suspicious because it was coming from a different address other than forums.fanhost.
