excess data from webservers is a problem. I'd like, however, to have a more elaborate solution (however, I'm unable to do a patch, sorry).
Have you tried the patch which has already been made available to silence most of the harmless cases of this warning?
http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v2/2.5/bugs/#squid-2.5.STABLE9-excess_data
I had quite a few problems with bad webservers with the result that I couldn't view their content or have corrupted downloads!
Any meaningful examples?
The excess data message is just a warning, it doesn't make Squid behave differently from before except in some rare corner cases where it stops deliberate cache pollution (this condition is very unlikely to happen due to accidental server bug).
