 Is this a workaround?

Entered '@' into ie's restricted sites and it appeared to cause the dslreport test site to appear properly in ie's address bar. Now it says »i.dslr.net/symantec/worse2.html instead of »symantec.com. Perhaps this will be a workaround.

You should be testing how things can be made to show the fake location correctly *after* you got to the fake site, not before. Before, the 'worse2.html' page is just a plain page. Little effort was made to disguise the link. It could easily be a redirection.

It is what happens after you reach the destination via the screwed up link that is important, if you can make IE display the correct location once there then you have a workaround.
