Hello Robin, You can try with purge tool.This is squid related software. The purge tool is a kind of magnifying glass into your squid-2 cache. You can use purge to have a look at what URLs are stored in which file within your cache. The purge tool can also be used to release objects which URLs match user specified regular expressions. A more troublesome feature is the ability to remove files squid does not seem to know about any longer. Thanks, Visolve Squid Team, http://squid.visolve.com
