Yeah I was a bit confused by the question as well. If you are using Squid in a non-transparent mode then you'll need to use firewall rules to block port 80 traffic appropriately so that only the requests that go through the proxy are allowed. Otherwise moving to a transparent proxy should provide you the behavior you're expecting. -- David
