This is a low-level problem. squid.conf is not relevant. Looks like your XP is plain not listening to the return traffic for some reason. The symptom is identical in both cases. The client sends SYN, proxy responds with SYN+ACK, retransmits, but the XP never seems to receive the SYN+ACK sent by the proxy. Do you have firewalling enabled on the XP? Can it talk to other network services in the same network? Have you tried for example pinging the proxy IP address or the address of another server in your network? Regards Henrik
