with url_regex.
You should also translate the URL into regex
^http://www\.awprofessional\.com/articles/articles\.asp\?p=363731$
but keep in mind that this is an exact match for the URL. Any variance from this exact URL will not be matched (i.e. if you add &junk=1 to the end of the URL you are likely to bypass this)
Anyway i would like to know if this is the proper way to stop it or if there is a better to doit with dstdom_regex.
dstdom_regex looks at the hostname only, similar to it's more structured sister "dstdomain".
General structure of an URL:
protocol://domain/urlpath
The Squid ACLs is named accordingly.
url_regex looks at the whole URL (all parts) as a single string.
