Hi,
 
I know, this has been asked many times before but I canīt make it work yet.
I read that when using transparent proxy, to block MSN Messenger to a
certain IP I should include in squid.conf the following:

acl user src 192.168.1.11/255.255.255.255
acl messengerq req_mime_type -i ^application/x-msn-messenger
acl messengerp rep_mime_type -i ^application/x-msn-messenger
http_access deny user messengerq
http_access deny user messengerp

But iīve tried that and still canīt block MSN on the terminal Iīm testing. I
read also about using url_regex like

acl messenger1 url_regex .messenger.hotmail.com
acl messenger2 url_regex .msgr.hotmail.com
http_access deny user messenger1
http_access deny user messenger2

But canīt block it with that either.

Can anyone that has succesfully blocked MSN Messenger, please send me an
example on how to do it?

Thanks and regards,

Edo
