What type of URL is it? HTTP? HTTPS? Something else?

Which request?
The browser request for the .wax file, or the media player request for the
actual media file?
> but still window media player cant play this file
It basically sounds as though either:
- Windows media player is trying to access a URL directly without going
through the proxy, or
- Windows media player is requesting a URL type which Squid can't handle
Tell us what URLs you're seeing in the access log, and what URL is contained
in the .wax file - that might give us more of a clue.
