hi all,
     I guess,  current implementation of Squid do filtering only on
the HEADER part of HTTP request.
     I want to add a filtering module that can do filtering on the
BODY of HTTP as well.I tried to explore SQUID code ( src/client_side.c
) but could not get much.

I think you should join forces with Duane and Alex in the ICAP project. By 
ICAP squid gets opened in a very flexible manner to perform various forms 
of filtering tasks.

ICAP works by having the proxy and filter components separate from each 
other (possibly on different boxes), using a quite simple but yet 
efficient TCP protocol to exchange the data.
