Hello,

The squid statistics report show us that some site are leaking our 
bandwidth.  How to tell? They have a huge number of images referral and 
barely none for pages.

One example:
  In December, channelsurfing.net has been seen as a referrer for:
   - 1000 pages roughly
   - 1 740 000 images
whatchnewfilms.com is 14 000 / 581 000.

By looking at their pages, they use upload.wikimedia.org and glue some 
advertisement around there.

Given the cost in bandwidth, hard drives, CPU, architecture ... I do 
think we should find a solution to block thoses sites as much as 
possible.  Would it be possible at the squid level?
