[squid-users] Windows Live , with proxy auth

Hi,

I'm runnig Squid 3.0.STABLE19 , using plain proxy auth (auth_param
basic program /usr/sbin/pam_auth).
Some time ago , I had troubles when trying to login to Windows Live
Messenger. It began to causing problems when i enable the proxy auth.
I could not make it work. My solution was installing Pidgin http://pidgin.im/ .

In Microsoft's page
http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B927847&x=1&y=8 , quote
:
Users behind some authenticating proxy servers may experience sign-in
issues. They might have to configure the proxy servers to force
authentication for the following User Agent string: MSN Explorer/9.0
(MSN 8.0; TmstmpExt). To do this, users should see the documentation
for their proxy server or contact their network administrator.

Is this the fix for this issue? How can i implement it?

Thanks!
