Just last month I posted regarding this issue, another squid user suggested disabling ipv6 but that didn't resolve the issue. Another suggestion was the bank might be performing extra validation, but I spoke with a guy from commbank's tech services and he advised there is no additional validation. I've also experienced extreme slowness with the following sites: www.ib.boq.com.au www.fco.gov.uk Still looking for a solution.... If you find one please let me know :) Cheers, JLK
