Given... acl no-auth url_regex -i "/usr/local/squid/etc/no-auth.txt" ...where no-auth.txt contains... www.plaxo.com utils.winantivirus.com toolbar.msn.com ...and... http_access allow no-auth http_access allow non-restricted-users # First line requiring authentication http_access allow artworks-allowed-files artworks etc. ...any requests for pages matching no-auth will be allowed through without requiring authentication. If the user tries to go to another page (or if the browsers start page is set to something else) authentication will be requested. As a side note, using a dstdomain acl instead of a url_regex is a good habit to be in, as it scales much better. Chris
