Certainly..the site in question is http://www.murfreesborotn.gov
I find it strange that when i go to http://www.murfreesborotn.gov//
(with 2 slashes at the end) it load properly through the proxy.

If i hit the website as http://we.bs.ite/ I get a 403 error from the
webserver there, I'm guessing its denying me a directory listing.
In all similar cases shown so far the cause have been malfunctioing
web servers (or related equipment such as firewalls or IDS systems)
getting wrongly upset about some HTTP detail.
would be much easier to help you if you could provide the name of the
actual site in question.
If not then bang the web site with different mutations of the HTTP
request as sent when going directly or when going via the proxy until
you find what is making the difference, then read RFC2616 on what that
request header is supposed to mean and ponder on if this could be a
valid reason to a 403 Forbidden response (answer: it is not).
The only cases seen where it has not been due to malfunctioning web
servers is when the requestors proxy server had been banned from using
the requested site at all, but then all requests to the site returns
403 regardless of the URL, and also when runing a browser locally on
the proxy server but without using the proxy.. (the ban is on the IP
of the proxy).
