[squid-users] Squid on Windows XP

Hi all,
  I installed the windows port of squid by Acme Consulting on an XP
workstation with a dialup connection to the inet. Fixed up the
squid.conf so that squid listens on 127.0.0.1 and set the IE proxy
settings accordingly. Sadly I get no page-loads.
  The cache log shows that squid starts up OK and picks up the dns
addresses assigned to the dialup connection. However, the pagefaults
count on exit looks extremely high:

Page faults with physical i/o: 1640

  I use aufs on my FC6 squid and assumed that this would be fine on
xp. Here is my cache_dir line (will tune later):

cache_dir aufs c:/squid/var/cache 1024 16 256

  Neither access.log nor store.log have any entries.

  Any thoughts on what is wrong here? Does this port no play well on
XP? Or have I chosen the wrong store type? Or missed something else?

  I can post more of the config files if needed.

Thanks,
Chris
