Yes, indeed Squid *does* support P2P using HTTPS tunneling.
just to make things clear ..... squid supports connection tunneling and not only HTTPS tunneling. A misconfigured squid can be used, for example, by worms to send spam emails !!! worms can connect to squid port (3128) and issues 'CONNECT' to port 25 and it will work !!!

It can tunnel, as it seems to me, any kind of TCP connection and not only HTTPS ones.

You may use the free ufdbGuard Squid redirector to block
HTTPS tunneling.
ufdbGuard can also block HTTPS sites which have no valid certificate
   VERY VERY BAD idea on the real world :)

and sites which have no FQDN in the URL.
   very GOOD idea :)


OK thanks a lot for your "lights" , I think the easyiest way
for me would be protocol filtering done by the firewall ...
