This is being Finjan-SurfinGate/4.0 ( NT ) is "vulnerable" , Trend Micro Interscan Viruswall ( 3.51 ) ( NT ) as well. Both do not seem to have a configuration switch to change this behaviour. Squid 2.3 STABLE 1 seems not to be affected by this issue, as there is no CONNECT Method allowed in default configuration. greetings timo
