hmm, when did this change?
IIRC that was big problem since updates use huge files and fetch only parts
of them, which squid wasn't able to cache.
But i'm off for a few years, maybe M$ finally fixed that up...

i'm not a squid expert, but it seems that things became much easier when squid becames fully HTTP/1.1 compliant.

that wasn;t the problem...

Caching huge files do not changed, that's needed for caching Windows Update files. Storage space, however, is becaming cheaper every year. In my setup, for example, i'm caching files up to 500Mb, i have absolutely no intention of caching ALL Windows Update files.

the problem was iirc in caching partial objects
http://wiki.squid-cache.org/Features/PartialResponsesCaching

that problem could be avoided with properly setting range_offset_limit
http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/range_offset_limit/
but that also means that whole files instead of just their parts are
fetched.

it's quite possible that microsoft changed the windows updates to be smaller
files, but I don't know anything about this, so I wonder if you really do
cache windows updates, and how does the caching work related to informations
above...
