Squid by itself doesn;t scan eth data portion of HTTP objects. It has no way of knowing where the images are going to come from. you will need an external checker (ie ICAP) to do this on its behalf, AND ALSO some way for it to get the images past squid on the fly. > > For example, if a forum user makes a posts and embeds and image from > Flickr or any other image hosting site, I would still want that image > to display.

I would suggest for now that its an easier solution to configure squid to allow the webserver access to the general net, make an internal redirector page that pulls those images into the webserver and sends them out to the users as if they were on the webserver itself. Just be very careful that the redirector will only work for internal clients, and for items placed in the forum. Amos
