Re: [squid-users] How do I get the proxy to stop the download of video etc. when Authentication is stopped?

Squid's access controls is only verified at the start of the request.
There currently is no way of terminating ongoing requests short of
restarting Squid.

If you need a method of terminating individual connections then there
is several Squid developers available for hire who can help you add
such feature to Squid for a small fee. If you are interested in this
contact squid-dev@squid-cache.org
