[squid-users] Incorrect logging of any ICQ connection

Hi, dear squid-cache developers!
In my LAN some of users use icq and of course through squid. I don't
leave them chance to go other way.
I need to get statistics per user for ALL traffic
transferred through the cache. That works fine, but squid does NOT log
these connections as it logs other connections, made by the CONNECT
method.
 
Say I want to go to https://www.nic.ru/whois/ and want to get an info
for sasha.ru domain. EVERY connection to this service is logged.
When I ask squid to CONNECT to a https server by a browser and get a
reply, is the CONNECT session concerned closed? I mean does squid close
the connection to the https server or keeps that one alive waiting for
next client's (browser's) request?
I hope it does close. 'Cause when exploring logs I found out for every
https(CONNECT) request there is an entry saying who what and how many
data transferred(of course it is not cached by the reason it is not
understood).
 
But when using icq - only two entry is in the access.log.
Of course I understand that with such app. as icq the connection after
having been established is being kept and only after closing icq
(shutting down the app.), squid logs an info.
 

At the beginning:
 
1106896841.651 636 10.7.0.68 TCP_MISS/000 347 CONNECT
login.icq.com:443 sasha FIRST_UP_PARENT/10.0.0.78 -
 
The end of connection (when I closed app., that is icq) is expressed by
this entry:
 
1107254299.091 915654 10.7.0.18 TCP_MISS/000 18353 CONNECT
205.188.7.220:443 sasha FIRST_UP_PARENT/10.0.0.78 -
 
Where 18353(BYTES!!!) say to me that I (sasha) transferred both sides
such amount of data.
 
But is it so?
Of course no, 'cause I have transferred more than 1.3 MB of data.
Two files - one 1,1 MB and one 200KB and a discussion.
 
So the question stays WHY?????????????
Why does squid logs incorrect data?
I hoped it would log in the second (that is last) line all volume of
data thansferred during the session (more than 1.3 MB).
But it logs something strange number.
 
Please anybody help.
 
Respectfully.
Sasha.
