Thanks Amos (catching the reply late).

Odd that the added debug is not functioning, I've tried

debug_options ALL,1 23,3 84,9

And I don't get more than the ALL,1 information

2010/05/05 09:08:05| urlParse: Illegal character in hostname '!host!'

And my access.log

acl HTTP-SUSPECT url_regex \!host

works with a generated bogus url:

1272997513.724 1 10.40.9.132 TCP_MISS/404 589 GET
http://cache01.gc.sv.domain.net/!host! -
FIRST_UP_PARENT/apps.domain.net text/html

So I'm capturing if it's in the url, but I'm till getting the illegal
character, in cache.log but nothing in access.log. So I'm missing or
not capturing something.

Very odd that my debug does not seem to be working however :)
