RE: [squid-users] Hotmail problem (WORKAROUND for squid 2.4)

Hello,

I have also implemented the "anonymize_headers deny Accept-Encoding" in my
squid.conf file, and can confirm that it works for squid 2.4STABLE7 (RedHat
2.1AS). I can now log into hotmail acounts without issue.

It does not appear to adversely affect accessing other web sites. Thanks
Yiu-chung and Henrik!

Regards,
Trevor.

Dear all,

The squid 2.4 equivalent of "header_access Accept-Encoding deny all" is
"anonymize_headers deny Accept-Encoding",
but it lacks the feature in squid 2.5 of limiting to this option to be
applied to hotmail, i.e. this
option applies to ALL proxy requests.

I have tested this option for squid 2.4.stable6 and it worked for me.
