[squid-users] yahoo messenger DoS

Hi

I'm facing a typical problem of yahoo messenger. I'm running a RH 7.2 =
box with squid and IPTables in transparent proxy mode. We are an ISP and =
have a huge number of subscribers who use yahoo messenger. Problem is =
that everyday for about a couple of hours, yahoo messenger stops =
working. If we change the gateway address of clients' machine to some =
other address, which runs another squid or wingate, messenger starts =
working. I even upgarded my IPtables & squid in order to resolve this =
problem but i'm still unable to find a solution.

This is a very typical problem & i'm not able understand what's causing =
the denail of service. Please help.

Regards
