I can confirm the second problem - same error message. I also had built 3.1.5 with --disable-ipv6 (on Gentoo, with the appropriate USE flag) and had no problems with it, but according to the changelog 3.1.6 now does detection at runtime and this does not fully work any more. In my case I could use squid from a WinXP client with Firefox (configured to explicitly force IPv4 addresses), but not with a Firefox Twitter plugin - which seems to use Firefox' proxy settings, but apparently not the enforcement (?). I have no idea why, but not using the the proxy or reverting to 3.1.5 fixed things. And no, it was not a temporary false positive ;) Holger
