RE: [squid-users] Restrict Messengers

Hi

what you could do is to create a file on your machine (i.e linux)
/etc/squid/banlist/messengers.dat (like the one I have attached from my
server)

then in squid

acl messengers url_regex -i "/etc/squid/banlist/messengers.dat"
http access_deny messengers

otherwise, this is a list of IP's that was supplied by a collegue at another
UK college (cheers Jezz), which I have not added to.. the attached one is
totally upto date
