RE: [squid-users] ACLs and squidGuard!?

To be honest I don't know if I can be much help since I don't use Squid
ACL's and never have. I only use squidGuard for filtering.

You can get the blacklists from here: http://www.squidguard.org/blacklist/

You will have to check the (http or ftp) directory that the file is in, for
the date it was last updated.

I was actually thinking to place the RegEx filters (with which I use to
filter out multimedia/streaming content) in squid.conf, instead of using
them with squidguard... What do you think of this? I mean: I actually
should allow *some* people to access multimedia content, while the mass
of our users doesn't have to get that content. Which way is the
easiest/most suitable? Squid or squidguard?

Yes, where do I get good and updated blacklists?
