Your http_access list looks fine. The only reason you should be seeing a login prompt for IM is if your restrict-im acl isn't matching right. Try putting this in your /etc/squid/im file instead of what's there: .msg.yahoo.com messenger.hotmail.com Then change restrict-im to a dstdomain acl type (and remove the -i option). See if that helps. Adam
