[SQU] two questions

hi,
i am using squid on top of an isdn router for a small internal network. the
isdn router is configured with diald to establish a connection whenever needed
and to hang up soon again.

whenever i request some more complicated page on the web, after done surfing,
i close the browser and squid will continue requesting at irregular intervals,
bringing the link up and down 10 to 15 times after the surfing is already done.

i want to know why this is happening (the page loaded completely, i.e. squid
has no images to retry loading), and more importantly, how to turn it off...

my other question deals with the auto-proxying using IP forwarding so that
browsers need not be configured for a proxy. the router is running ipchains,
so it's not problem for me to redirect all requests to port 80 to squid.

but i need to reconfigure squid (2.3.STABLE4) with --enable-ipf-transparent,
and when i try to do so, configure outputs:

        checking if IP-Filter header files are installed... ./configure: test: ==:
            binary operator expected
        ./configure: test: ==: binary operator expected
        no
        WARNING: Cannot find necessary IP-Filter header files
                                        Transparent Proxy support WILL NOT be enabled

how can i make configure squid with ipf-transparent? (running linux 2.2.16
with ip forwarding enabled.)

thanks,
martin
