[squid-users] Redirector 302 Redirects not working for CONNECT method

Hi,

We are currently running Squid 2.6 out of the RHEL 5.5 repos. We use
WebSense to filter web traffic which communicates with Squid via a
redirector plugin. HTTP blocking works fine, but when users try to
access a HTTPS page that is blocked, in IE7, the user gets a generic
"The Page Cannot Be Found" error (not a Squid specific error). I believe
this is due to:

http://bugs.squid-cache.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1412

There seems to have been a patch created for this (by Henrik)? I take
it that this patch was not included in the EL5 Squid 2.6 RPM:

squid-2.6.STABLE21-6.el5

Are my assumptions correct? If so, what are my options for fixing my
problem of displaying the generic error message? What should happen is
that the redirector plugin will redirect to a WebSense server and
display a "block page," but displaying a more specific Squid error page
would be sufficient in this case.
