 Hi,

I want to block spyware while users browse internet. Are there any
ACLs to block this ?

 Have you done this before?

squid has no 'malware ACL type'. It has, tough, several different ACL types that can be used to classify and deny malware access, you just have to create the ACLs.

Can squid 'automagically' recognizes normal accesses and malware accesses ?? Absolutely NOT.

Is there some third-party ACL file that can be used to acchieve spy/malware blocking ?? I'm not sure on that, but probably someone is already doing and maintaning that. Try googling/archive searching for that.




I don't think "fingreprinting" requests from the lan to the internet is possible. But you can restrict access by acl-blocking domains or regex urls that are known to spread spyware. I think there must be some sort of already compiled list for this, but I can't confirm since I never did a thorough research on the subject. To collect urls and domains you could also take note of what programs like ad-aware and spybot s&d find on the affected machine(s), and use those urls to update your rules.
