Thank you very much, We will try to locate at least one subscriber and we will check. I will report back as soon as we have the information to help others (This problem kills 2 of my squid proxy) regards, wennie ----- Original Message ----- From: "Amos Jeffries" <squid3@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "Wennie V.

Locate one of the IPs which seems fairly regular. Contact that client and talk about whats going on. Do they actually use GoogleTalk or is this some broken malware? There has been report of some infection recently which constantly contacts google. This may be it. Or they may have configured the proxy as a SOCKS proxy. A trace of the traffic flow going into Squid will likely show what two binary characters are being prepended to the request. Maybe contacting someone at Google to report the bug in their software. When you figure out exactly what is going on for one, that should help with the rest. And please report back here so others with the same problem can get better help. Good luck.
