1. A method comprising:
omitting, from a whitelist that controls operation of a content filter, a network address to a resource to block access to the resource due to operation of the content filter;
identifying the network address to the resource which is currently blocked from being accessed via the network address due to operation of the content filter;
identifying occurrences of the network address within previously accessed content;
based on the occurrences of the network address within the previously accessed content, modifying the operation of the content filter to unblock access to the resource via the network address by adding the network address to the whitelist; and
after the operation of the content filter is modified to unblock access to the resource via the network address, permitting access to the resource via the network address by enabling the whitelist to continue to control operation of the content filter, the resource being webpage content, wherein permitting access to the resource includes delivering, via a browser running in a virtual desktop, new content while a virtualization platform operates the content filter to block the browser running in the virtual desktop from accessing other resources.
