Hmm. OK. That's my fault as I wasn't paying attention to the localnet line.

Take out the `http_access allow localnet`.

What that part is doing is allowing any traffic from your local network through the proxy.

If you remove that line, only traffic going to your whitelist will be allowed.

Or, you could return that entry back to the old one of `http_access deny !localnet` if you're worried about traffic from other than your local network getting through your proxy.
