Hello Facundo,

SNIP

You want to
prevent internet servers from detecting that your are
behind a proxy, therefore you need to disable
transmission of Via and XFF.

To do that, add the following 2 lines to your squid
conf file and don't forget to restart the service
after you save the file:

forwarded_for off
via off

One last detail. Setting "forwarded_for off" doesn't disable the transmission of the X-Forwarded-For header. It just
removes detail from what it normally transmits.  To wit:

#  TAG: forwarded_for   on|off
#       If set, Squid will include your system's IP address or name
#       in the HTTP requests it forwards.  By default it looks like
#       this:
#
#               X-Forwarded-For: 192.1.2.3
#
#       If you disable this, it will appear as
#
#               X-Forwarded-For: unknown
#
