    if remote site detected your 'real' ip address, then you probably
should look:

# TAG: forwarded_for on|off
# If set, Squid will include your system's IP address or name
# in the HTTP requests it forwards.
[ ...... ]
#Default:
# forwarded_for on

    in your squid.conf. Setting it to off will make squid stop sending
your real ip address.
