Re: [SQU] Is there a way to track when an IRC user used Squid for access?

If he is using Squid, then the requests will be logged in access.log
with his IP.

However, unless your server is well firewalled or stripped down from all
services (including accessible DNS server) except Squid he might well be
"owning" it...
