Perhaps I put my question wrong. What I intended to ask was how to make squid not process such request just like we stop the request by their respective host IPs or protocols can we stop client request to be processed by squid with respect to this error.

With the new req_header acl in Squid-2.5.STABLE7 you can match any request headers you like if there is a certain pattern (besides sheer size) you want to match and perhaps deny. Regards Henrik
