Oh, and I forgot to mention - a lot of people here are struggling to work out 
how to *get* Squid to cache content from youtube, because youtube doesn't send 
content by 'standard HTTP' any more.

Therefore blocking the caching of content from youtube.com in particular will 
very likely make almost zero difference.
