        This is obsolete and unsupported. The current version
        is at least 2.2stable5. Only 2.x stable and release

        If MSN Messenger users basic HTTP, there should be no
        problems. If it uses HTTP extensions, like PROPFIND,
        you willneed a current version of squid *and* some
        additioanl patches. If it doesn't use HTTP, see below.

        I was not aware that netmeeting had an option to use
        HTTP. Remember squid is *not* a firewall.
