We had the same problem here a few months ago..... it is of course a MSIE problem. After installing a specific patch from MS$ the problem was gone. Caveat: the patch was not available for download, so we had to call ms support and give them the references from their own knowledge base Article ID: Q187770 looked it up again....... Guess what : it is still (a few months old now) not "regression tested" ...and should be applied to ie 4 + sp1. So all current IE installations cannot use a javascript *.pac file for FTP unless the call MS ? To my experience, a reaction of MS minded IT Managers is to say "now you see, javascript is bull-shit, let's implement the MS vbscript central configuration files" ...... and even better..... "but I still think you cannot rely on squid, we should also install a ms proxy server". So far the latter has not happened here. :-) To my experience, a patch takes only hours with squid to appear, with MS quite a lot longer Cheers Paul [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hi all! > > I have found myself in an BDA-state (=BrainDeadAdmin :-) ), I am > confused! > > I have squid 2.1-PATCH2 with the memory-leak patch up and running and > doing well...
