Hello,

Thanks for your answer, but that does unfortunatly not work. The problem is
that WirusWall and Squid is installed on the same server, with VirusWall
nearest the user listening on port 8080. This is the only port open, and
when Squid generate FTP views the clients try to access the icons on port
3128. Is it possible to alter the URLs in the FTP view to point to port 8080
and not 3128? I don't mind altering the source and recompile. BTW: I am able
to view the icons directly using port 8080.

Please mind that I do not wish to alter my configuration that much, since I
prefer to have VirusWall between the user and Squid. Mainly because I wish
to check everything even if it's cached from before or not (especially if
the virusdefinitions have been updated in-between), and because I trust
Squid more than VirusWall to face the big, bad Internet.

Have a nice day,
