Check your squid.conf file. Initially, the default is to have "http_access deny all" at the top of the ACLs so nothing gets through without you properly building your ACL list. As a quick test, you can change the "deny" to "allow" and try it again, but I don't recommend keeping it that way. Hope this helps. -Mark
