Alex is correct about the database versions, but I see a couple of other problems, and I'm worried that there may be more. squidGuard does not "block" a url, it "redirect" the request to somewhere else. Squid sends the request to squidGuard and squidGuard either returns a blank line (approved), or a new url for Squid to retrieve (redirecting to the new url). Your config file does not contain a redirect statement, thus making it impossible for squidGuard to redirect. Your acl statements should end with either "none" or "all". Is squidGuard writing to its logfile? (squidGuard.log) You should see a bunch of entries there every time you start and stop squidGuard. Then you should check that logfile whenever squidGuard is not doing what it should be doing. Many times your answer will be there in the logfile.
