Hello,
We have observed that on our system there is a link of
dss1.siteadvisor.com generating background request and
hence we were getting error in access.log file.
Error was TCP_DENIED/400 error:invalid reuqest.
Our proxy server is configured with authentication.
When we enable transparent setting in http_port, the
log was showing lots of request going to
http://dss1.siteadvisor.com:3128/DSS/Ping? etc.. When
we disable transparent it was showing error as
mentioned above.
I could not find out why squid generates such error.
We stopped siteadvisor service on system and
everything is fine.
Any idea why squid generates such error? How to
overcome from this?
HTTP messages through a proxy is slightly different to raw HTTP.
You are sending transparently intercepted raw HTTP traffic at squid.
Squid needs the 'http_port ... transparent' setting in order to
understand and handle the URI formats of raw HTTP.
You can either stop intercepting the packets, or configure squid
properly to handle them.
SiteAdvisor is a good and useful service providing security for many
people. I'd advise you to configure your squid properly rather than
turning it off.
