I am using Squid 3 as a transparent proxy on a NAT server to limit access to

It's part of a Network Access Control solution, pre-registered users are stuck

Squid is seeing a lot of "Bad Request Methods", that look like:
squid[]: [ID 702911 daemon.notice] clientParseRequestMethod: Unsupported method in
request '__*__U___OX_ ___B___&_<U____________'_____gA%__p_'
Is this something trying to do HTTPS on port 80?
Looks that way. Provided port 80 is the only one you are intercepting
into Squid.
Can I stop squid logging these, because I know already!
We have a script locally that picks up on "unusual" entries in log files and
mails them to me, I don't want telling anymore!
There is your answer, you need to adjust the script to ignore those
warnings.
"Unsupported method in request .*___.*" seems like a good pattern to
pick them out with.
