My colleague in our data center systems group was working on a UCS
configuration, and the page was kicking out some blocks on our
TippingPoint because of some ungodly obfuscated javascript, and I had to
apply an exception to let him load the tool. 

I wish//I had kept a copy of the page source element that was triggering
it...  it was a real "WTF??" moment.
