What messages are in your squidGuard.log file? I'd first check file ownership and permissions. You ran your successful tests from the command line logged in as your user or as root. Squid and squidGuard usually run as squid:squid, so they might have been denied access to files that you had access to as root. Do a 'cat domains | grep "yahoo.com"' on the domains file that contains mail.yahoo.com and tell us what it reports. Rick
