right, and *only* google.com sites, so, for example, .gmail.com domain
would be blocked.  It is hard to work with whitelists (on *any* proxy,
not just squid), because you have to whitelist the domain and all
required domains (for example, for yahoo.com you will need yahoo.com
and yimg.com).  You will have to deeply explore the sites to
whitelist, using firebug or similar to get what sites you need to
whitelist in order to get them working correctly.

Ildefonso.
