Thank you, I have decided reject with a 403 message and the problem has been fixed. I have used and acl in squid: acl DeniedDomains dstdomain feeds.store.ovi.com http_access deny DeniedDomains >> I have found a person who have same problem (here: >> http://squid-web-proxy-cache.1019090.n4.nabble.com/Squid-memory-issue-td3044458.html) >> >> but not solution is provide in that thread. >> >> The problem is that some Nokia application try to access to an URL, it >> receive 407 error and try again ad infinitum.

I don't understand very well what you are trying say with this sentence. If I understood you, first you say me that NTLM can be part of the problem. But from your "hint" commentary, I understand that you are saying me that NTLM auth helper hasn't been work yet at this level. How can cause the problem an element wich doesn't take part in the process?. I'm sorry, probably my confusion is produced by my poor english level, so don't worry. In any case, I think that NTLM auth helper and SNMP daemon were crashing due to server overload.
