For the record, what XTM version are you running?
What is the reason listed in the block ?
My check on this web site shows that it is not categorized by WB.
There are a number of options:
1) Are you blocking web sites that are not categorized? If so, you can change to not block them.
2) add a WB exception for this site on your HTTPS proxy
3) the password pop-up suggests that WebBlocker has been set up to allow access to denied sites when the proper password is entered which was set up by the firewall admin. So you need to know it - then you can enter it
Thank you Bruce,
Is the Firewall admin password we usually login with is the one to use to let the site come up ?
I will try your suggestion number 2 , is it through the the web access or the Watchguard sytsem Manager console? Is there any screenshot that shows the process how to do this ?
Thank you so much for your valuable response.

You can use the Web UI or WSM Policy manager to make these changes.
There is extensive documentation on all XTM subjects.

The password is whatever was set up in the WebBlocker settings.
And you can change it.
