[squid-users] Bypassing ACLs

    Hello Guys,

    I'm running squid 2.4S2 with some ACLs denying some extensions ( like
.mp3, .zip and others ). These rules are done with a text file with one
extension per line, like ".mp3$", ".zip$". The $ means 'at the end of URL'.

    There are some extensions that I cannot block at all, I mean, I want my
users browsing www.mp3.com ( so I cannot block just .mp3 ). Altough, I do
not want them downloading mp3 files. .mp3$ is working fine for this.

    But I have discovered ( hope my users dont ) that using
http://someplace/somefile.mp3?type=i bypass the ACL and MP3 is downloaded.

    Question ...... is there a way of telling squid to bypass arguments when
applying url_regex rules ?????

    Hope hearing from you soon,
